Answer 1

Answer:

Dealer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Dealer 1

Purchase price = 20500

Sales price = 25000

Profit :

((25000 - 20500) / 20500) * 100%

= 21.95%

Dealer 2 :

Purchase price = 22000

Sales price = 28800

((28800 - 22000) / 22000) * 100%

= 30.90%

The better buy is for dealer 2 has he made a higher percentage profit
