Answer» In this type of transaction there is only loss and to calculate the total loss percent we use this formula :: (common loss and gain percent / 10) square.Here common loss and gain percent is 20.So, (20/10)square 2 square. = 2 × 2 =4% is total loss percent. SP = 240000.Therefore CP = 240000÷ 100 - loss% × 100. =240000 ÷ 96 × 100= 2500 × 100 = 250000Therefore CP = ₹ 250000Therefore loss = CP - SP = 250000-240000=10000Therefore, loss of ₹ 10000 (c) loss of Rs. 20000 |
