Let the cost price of a dozen night suits be Rs x
With 18% loss selling price=4920⇒x1-18%=4920⇒x1-0
18=4920⇒0 82x=4920⇒x=49200
82∴x=6000Hence,  cost price of a dozen night suits =Rs 6000⇒cost price of each night suits =Rs 600012=Rs 500Selling price of each night suit with 15% profit=Rs 5001+15%=Rs 5001+0
15=Rs 5001 15=Rs 575
