thanks for comments....
answer for 1 is

per unit 50.46 ( 15+8.5+15.6+4.8+6.56)
profit per unit is Rs. 14.54 and 22%. so justifiable...

answer 2 written in level as defined in question...figer in '000

Sales - V cost - F cost = Profit

1) 810 - 522 - 250 = 38
2) 900 - 580 - 300 = 20
3) 990 - 638 - 300 = 52

hope the answer is understandable
