Profit and Loss Revision

Products are made at a certain cost. If they are sold at a higher price than the cost price, then a profit has been made. If the products are sold at a lower price than the cost price, then this a loss. 

Example (Calculating the Profit)

* The profit is the difference between the cost price and the selling price.

 I bought a pair of shoes for $120 and sold them for $195. What was the profit made? 

 Cost Price of shoes = $120 

 Selling Price of shoes = $195 

 Profit made on the sale ($195 - $ 120)  = $75 

 

Example (Calculating the Selling Price)

To calculate the selling price when a profit has been made, you must add. 

To calculate the selling price when a loss has been made, you must subtract. 

3. Find the profit made on the sale of a computer which was bought for $999 and sold for $1 200.

4. A dress that had cost $150.00 was sold for $49.99. What was the loss?

5. My sister bought a Nutri bullet for $239 and sold it for $155. Calculate her loss. 

Section B

Cost Price = $425

Selling Price = $870

2. 

Cost Price = $415.90

Selling Price = $800

Loss/Profit =

3. 

Cost Price = $75.10

Selling Price = $70.78

Loss/Profit =

4. 

Cost Price = $67.90

Selling Price = $59.80

Despite heavy showers Friday night into yesterday morning, there were seemingly few incidents of flooding. Among the most affected parishes was St. Andrew. Shortly after the downpour which drenched most of the island, workmen from The Ministry of Transport and Works were busy clearing a gully in Belleplaine.

 Old tree trunks, branches and other debris too large to pass through the opening under the bridge, had lodged themselves there causing the murky water to rise almost to the height of the road above. At another St. Andrew bridge, a wall of gabions, serving as a barrier against soil slippage by a gully in Bruce Vale, was no match for the torrents. It had collapsed. 

 After the heavy rains, motorists and pedestrians using the Scotland District were advised to exercise extreme caution as the possibility of land slippage existed. It was noted that areas such as The Ermie Bourne Highway where culverts were broken causing water to overtop the road, Thompson Bridge where a large boulder damaged the bridge support and White Hill where there had been massive land slippage, were areas of concern.

 Meanwhile the work of hundreds of Barbadian who had worked to rid South coast beaches of sargassum seaweed was undone when hundreds of pounds of the seaweed were redeposited on these beaches. All this damage was associated with the 13th tropical cyclone for the Atlantic Hurricane season- MARIA. This system which formed in the Atlantic Ocean, passed north of the island on Friday, dumping heavy showers.
