Answer:

60,000

Explanation:

Let us represent:

Costs price = x

Selling price = x - 25%x

x - 0.25x

= 0.75x

If it been sold for Rs 21,000 more then the profit would have been

10%. = x + 10% = 1.1x

1.1x =0.75x + 21000

Collect like terms

1.1x - 0.75x = 21000

0.35x =21000

x = 21000/ 0.35

x = 60000

The cost price of the item = 60,000
