| Item           | Cost Price per unit (₹) | Profit on cost (%) |
|----------------|-------------------------|--------------------|
| Mobile         | 20,000                  | 10                 |

| Mobile covers  | 300                     | 12                 |

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Calculate profit on each item using the formula: Profit = (Profit % of Cost Price)

- Mobile: Profit = 10% of ₹20,000 = (10/100) × 20,000 = ₹2,000
- Laptop: Profit = 20% of ₹72,000 = (20/100) × 72,000 = ₹14,400
- Mobile covers: Profit = 12% of ₹300 = (12/100) × 300 = ₹36

Step 2: Add all profits to get total profit:
Total profit = ₹2,000 + ₹14,400 + ₹36 = ₹16,436

Therefore, the total profit earned by the shopkeeper is ₹16,436.
