    The selling cost for Stefan bicycle = $114 and

    the selling cost of a helmet = $18.

    The total cost for Jin is 120% of the money spent.

    Let us assume purchasing cost of a bicycle = $x.

    Purchasing cost of a halmet = $y.

    For bicycle

    120% of x is $114

    => 1.20 * x = 114

    Dividing both sides by 1.20, we get

    x=$95.

    For helmet.

    120% of y is $18.

    => 1.20 * y = 18.

    Dividing both sides by 1.20, we get

    y = $15.

    Therefore, Stefan spent originally to buy a bike $95 and $15 to buy a helmet.

    $114 - 95 = $19

    $18 - 15 = $3.

    Therefore, he made $19 by selling the bicycle and $3 by selling the helmet to Jin.
