Let cost be 100

Invoice price = 100 *125%

Selling Price = 125 *125% = 156.25

Therefore Additional Profit over Invoice price = 31.25

Therefore ,

Commission  = 125*10% + 31.25*50%

      7800        =28.125 %

Therefore Cost of Goods = 7800 / 28.125%

     =27733.33

Total Goods Sent on Consignment = 27733.33 / 60%  = 46222.22 

Thank you very much!!
