. Yogam consigned cost of goods of Rs. 1,00,000 at an invoice price of 20% above cost. Consignee is entitled to 5% commission on sales up to Invoice price, 20% on sales which exceeds invoice price, 2% delcredre commission on credit sales. He sold 25% of goods for cash for Rs. 40,000 and 50% of goods on credit for Rs. 70,000, 10% of goods taken by consignee. Calculate commission?

a) Rs. 10,500 b) Rs.9900 c) Rs.10,200 d) None of these

 

mam the answer for this question is A (10,500) but i got as 10,700. can u tel me wer did i go wrong??

mam onething im confused is tat When goods are taken by consignee for him then y are we providing commission (600 Rupees) to him ???

consignee may sell it to others or even himself

consignor has already invoiced at cost + 20%

so consignee needs to sell at or above invoice price

in given case consignee took over at invoice price

Got it mam Thank U :)
