Profit and Loss for Kids Worksheet
Business tip (SP minus CP): Profit = selling price − cost price (when SP is more than CP). Loss = cost price − selling price (when SP is less than CP) — we always say “a loss of ₹…”, never a minus sign. Total profit = profit on one × number sold. Selling price needed = cost + profit wanted.
