Hetiang hi a nih tâk si-ah chuan lehkhabu ziaktute hlép tùr hi a tlém hle tih hi, mipui náwlpuiin kan hriatpui ve a tha ang. Social media avànga lehkhabu hralh harsatzia kan hria a.

An tui ve laklawh si a, an kut chhuak ang angte hian chhiartu nei ve se an duh bawk si nèn, hlâwkna ûm miah loin an ti chhuak hräm hräm thìn a ni ber a. Lehkhabu an ziah atanga an hlèp chhiatzia leh an khawngaihthlâkzia hi kan chhûtpuia, an lehkhabu ziah ang ang kan hlutsak a hun ta hle a ni.

Chhût chhin ila…

Ziak miten lehkhabu an ziah atanga hlâwkna an neih chauhzia hi, entírna hmangin i’n chhût chhin teh ang.

Lehkhabu copy 1000 tih chhuah ka tum a, `300/- a hralh tùr a ni. A chhut (print)-na manah bu khatah `180 ka séng a (chhuttírna hmun azirin leh lehkhabu quality azirin a inang lo). Ka hlép chu bu khatah `120 niin a lang. Hetia en mai chuan ka va hlép hnem dáwn êm! `120×1000/c = `1,20,000! Nuai khat chuang lawih … maw!?

Heti hian ka zuar ta a: bu 500 chu lehkhabu dàwr hrang hrang leh Synod Bookroom-ah te ka dah a. A man la lâwk loa min lâksakna tûr chu 20% discount a ni (an rate siam sa angin).

A zo vek “hlauh” mai le!

Ka hlép tùr chu ka han chhût ta a…

Sènsò: •Chhutna man : Bu 1000 ×`180/copy = `1,80,000 + • Release function sènsò leh lehkhabu sem kualna sènsò = `5,000. • Sènsò zawng zawng = `1,85,000

Sum hmuhnate: •Bu 500 @ 20% discount (500 × `240) = `1,20,000; •bu 300 @ 30% discount: ( 300× `210 )= `63,000; •bu 150 @ MRP: (150 × `300) = `45,000. • Sum hmuh zawng zawng: `2,28,000

Hlép: `2,28,000 – `1,85,000 = `43,000

Nang ni la, lo hralh zo vek thei ta pawh ni la, i hun, i tha leh i rilru séngin, kum eng emaw zah hnua chéng sîng li sàng thum (`43,000) hlép tùrin, lehkhabu phêk 230 chuanga chhah i ziak peih ang em?
