Hi Mike, First off, thanks for all your help in F7. Your lecturers are very interesting and very easy to understand. I'm very grateful to you. I had a doubt in question 18. I got the same answer as shown in the book, but I just wanted to understand if my method (your method tbh - as shown in lecture) is right. Here's my working, C + P = S.P; 5.4 + 3.6 = 9; 1.5 M * 3.6/9 = 0.6M Regards, Mubashir

It looks fine to me The relationship of cost : profit : selling price is: 5.4 : 3.6 : 9 which is alternatively expressed as: 3 : 2 : 5 If we substitute $1.5 million into the selling price column, the profit column must be $600k (2/5 x $1.5 million) and the cost price becomes $900,000
