Correct Answer: INR 1,200
Solution :
Cost price = Rs. 900
Discount = 10% of marked price
Profit = 20% of cost price
Selling price = cost price + profit
= cost price + 20% of cost price
= 120% of INR 900
= INR 1,080
Selling price = marked price – discount
⇒ INR 1080 = marked price – 10% of marked price
⇒ INR 1080 = 90% of marked price
⇒ Marked price = INR 1,200
Hence, the correct answer is INR 1,200.
