Answer:

In the given scenario, the shopkeeper faces a loss due to the customer's acceptance of the counterfeit 100 rs note.

Step-by-step explanation:

The loss incurred by the shopkeeper is the difference between the cost of the bottle sold and the amount of money he had to return to the customer. Here's how it can be calculated:

The customer buys a bottle for 20 rs and gives the shopkeeper a 100 rs note. The shopkeeper does not have change and takes the note to a neighbour, who gives him 80 rs. The shopkeeper gives the 80 rs to the customer and the bottle.

Suppose the neighbour comes back and tells the shopkeeper that the 100 rs note is counterfeit. The shopkeeper is then left with a counterfeit note and has lost the 80 rs he gave to the customer.

Therefore, the loss incurred by the shopkeeper is 80 rs, which is the amount he gave to the customer. The cost of the bottle is not considered as part of the loss, as it is a legitimate transaction.

It is important for shopkeepers to be vigilant when accepting money from customers and to verify the authenticity of banknotes before accepting them as payment. Accepting counterfeit money can lead to financial losses for the business and can also damage its reputation among customers. In this scenario, the shopkeeper should have taken measures to verify the authenticity of the 100 rs note before accepting it as payment from the customer.
