SP per A = r*p (No of product A * cost per product)
CP of A = t
CP per A = t/r
Profit per A= SP - CP
= rp - t/r
For 100 A = 100 * (rp - t/r)

the bold part should be "price" , o bba :wink:

cost per A = t/r ----> cost of 100 A = 100t/r
the profit = 100p - 100t/r

cp per item = t/r
sp per item = p

sp - cp per item = p-t/r

For 100 items
= (p-t/r)100

you paid t/r for each article. You got p for each article. Therefore your profit is

100*(p - t/r)
