C++ program to calculate Profit Or Loss
Given with the cost price(CP) and the selling price(SP) and the task is to calculate the profit gained or loss incurred.
Cost price or CP is the price at which the product is purchased by the seller and the selling price or SP is the price at which the product is sold by the seller.
There is a formula to calculate profit gained or loss incurred
Profit = Selling price – Cost price
If Selling price is greater than cost price than there will be a profit
Loss = Cost price – Selling price
If cost price is greater than selling price than there will be a loss
Example
Input-: CP = 600 SP = 100 Output-: loss incurred = 500 Input-: CP = 100 SP = 500 Output-: profit gained = 400
Approach used in the given program is as follows −
- Take the input as cost price and selling price
- Apply the formula given to calculate profit or loss
- Display the result
Algorithm
Start Step 1-> declare function to calculate Profit. int profit(int CP, int SP) set int profit = (SP - CP) return profit step 2-> Declare function to calculate Loss int loss(int CP, int SP) set int loss = (CP - SP) return loss step 3-> In main() set int CP = 600, SP = 100 IF (SP == CP) Print "No profit nor Loss" End Else IF (SP > CP) call profit(CP, SP) End Else Call loss(CP , SP) End Stop
Example
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
// Function to calculate Profit.
int profit(int CP, int SP) {
int profit = (SP - CP);
return profit;
}
// Function to calculate Loss.
int loss(int CP, int SP) {
int loss = (CP - SP);
return loss;
}
int main() {
int CP = 600, SP = 100;
if (SP == CP)
cout << "No profit nor Loss";
else if (SP > CP)
cout<<"profit gained = "<< profit(CP, SP);
else
cout<<"loss incurred = "<<loss(CP , SP);
return 0;
}Output
IF WE RUN THE ABOVE CODE IT WILL GENERATE FOLLOWING OUTPUT
loss incurred = 500
