Answer:

Total cost of an article = Cost + Overhead expenses

= ₹ 15500 + ₹ 450

= ₹ 15950

Profit percent = 15

Profit percent = \frac{\text { Profit }}{\text { c.p }} \times 100

15 = Profit/₹ 15950 × 100

Profit = (15 ×₹ 15950)/100

= 2392.50

∴, Selling price of the article = C.P. + Profit

= ₹ (15950 + 2392.50)

= ₹ 18342.50
