Cost Analysis and Profit Calculation

Problem Solving

1. In a grocery store, Maria is choosing between two brands of laundry detergent that would
give her lesser cost. Brand A with net content of 2.2 kg costs PhP144.75 and Brand B
with net content of 900 grams costs PhP67.80. Which brand will Maria choose?
2. A department store is giving sales discount on selected items. How much would you pay
for a pair of shoes whose original price is PhP1, 350 with a 20% discount?
3. Sonia baked 5 dozens of cupcakes which cost her a total of PhP2, 675. How much should
she sell each cupcake if she wants to get a 25% profit?
4. Joel and his friends had lunch at a nearby restaurant. If their total bill was PhP1, 640, how
much was the value added tax? (12% VAT)
5. Suppose you invest PhP100,000 in a project that guarantees 15% interest annually,
provided your money is tied up for 5 years (i.e. you cannot withdraw any amount within
the five-year period). Show the difference in the annual gross returns between a simple
interest and a compounded interest.
6. The basic charge and environmental charge reflected in a Manila Water bill is PhP309.97
and PhP62.07, respectively. What percent of the basic charge is the environmental
charge? In the same bill, the total VATable current charge is P373.93. How much is the
12% VAT?
7. Mrs. Reyes treated her daughter and her 3 classmates to merienda at a burger restaurant.
Based on the listed prices (inclusive of VAT) in the menu, their orders would amount to a
total of PhP1,000. If there is a 5% service charge based on the total amount, and, Mrs.
Reyes avails of her senior citizen discount, how much will Mrs. Reyes pay?
