Correct Answer: Rs. 55 profit
Solution :
A man buys a watch for Rs. 1,950 in cash and sells it for Rs. 2,200 at a credit of 1 year.
So, his immediate profit is = (2200 – 1950) = Rs. 250
But the interest of 1950 rupees at 10% per annum for 1 year is = ($\frac{1950×10×1}{100}$) = Rs. 195
$\therefore$ His net profit is = (250 – 195) = Rs. 55
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 55 profit.
