C.P. of one buffalo =2000×100/105= Rs 19,047.62 Also, the SECOND buffalo was sold at a loss of 10%. This means if C.P. is Rs 100, then S.P. is Rs 90. ∴C.P. of other buffalo =2000×100/90= Rs 22222.22 Total C.P. = Rs 19047.62 + Rs 22222.22 = Rs 41269.84 Total S.P. = Rs 20000 + Rs 20000 = Rs 40000 Loss = Rs 41269.84 − Rs 40000 = Rs1269.84
