Answer-your new expenditure will be 82.5%. In this question your salary is also increased with your expenditure. But According to your question ,i think question made like that- If i say my expenditure is 75% and then again my expenditure is increased by 10%.What is my new expenditure? let salary be 100. New expenditure-(75+10)=85% of 100 =85. 0 votes 0 votes Shubhanshu commented Jul 23, 2017 reply Follow Share what is the final profit %?? 0 votes 0 votes rahul sharma 5 commented Jul 25, 2017 reply Follow Share Can you please tell why my approach is wrong?I am also reducing earlier commission by 24%. 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
