Explanation / Answer

3 ans) given total number of electronics = 6714

no of computers in that = 6126

remaining are non computers =6714-6126= 588

percentage of inventory of non computer is = 588/ 6714 = 0.0876 rounding off to nearest 10 digit = 0.09 = 0.9%

option a answer

4) given cost price =52870$

selling price =$882200

total perecentage of sales spent on utlit costs = 882200/52870 = 16.68% = rounding off 16.7

so option d

5) given cost price = 502

selling price = 481

loss % =( ( cost price - selling price )/ costprice ) *100

=((502-481)/502 ) *100 = 4.18 nearly equal to 4.2%

option c
