The company paid $2000 for the printer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of the printer for which the company bought it.

If x is the price of printer, then 25% of x will be the profit made by the company.

That is:

0.25x

According to the statement,

The cost and profit earned by company are equal to 2500

So,

x+0.25x = 2500\\1.25x = 2500

Dividing both sides by 1.25

\frac{1.25x}{1.25} = \frac{2500}{1.25}\\x = 2000

Hence,

The company paid $2000 for the printer
