Write a C program to find out profit or loss in buying an article
The formula for finding profit is as follows if the selling price is greater than cost price −
profit=sellingPrice-CosePrice;
The formula for finding loss is as follows if cost price is greater than selling price −
loss=CostPrice-SellingPrice
Now, apply this logic in the program and try to find whether the person gets a profit or loss after buying any article −
Example
Following is the C program to find the profit or loss −
#include<stdio.h> int main(){ float CostPrice, SellingPrice, Amount; printf("
Enter the product Cost : "); scanf("%f", &CostPrice); printf("
Enter the Selling Price) : "); scanf("%f", &SellingPrice); if (SellingPrice > CostPrice){ Amount = SellingPrice - CostPrice; printf("
Profit Amount = %.4f", Amount); } else if(CostPrice> SellingPrice){ Amount = CostPrice - SellingPrice; printf("
Loss Amount = %.4f", Amount); } else printf("
No Profit No Loss!"); return 0; }
Output
When the above program is executed, it produces the following result −
Enter the Product Cost: 450 Enter the Selling Price): 475.8 Profit Amount = 25.8000
