    Bianca's profit per bag is $4,000

    Explanation:

    The computation is shown below:

    The actual value paid by the Bianca = Cost of bag * remaining percentage

    = $4,000 * 40%

    = $1,600

    Then it sold 25% higher

    So, = Actual value * (100 + profit percentage)

    = $1,600 * (100 + 25%)

    = $2,000

    So, the profit would equal to

    = $2,000 - $1,600

    = $400
