Answer 1

Answer:

Let us first find out the c.p of the plot

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%s.p = 100 - 15 = 85/

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%s.p = 100 - 15 = 85/Applying unitary method

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%s.p = 100 - 15 = 85/Applying unitary methodIf s.p is 85 than c.p is =100

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%s.p = 100 - 15 = 85/Applying unitary methodIf s.p is 85 than c.p is =100If s.p is 1 than c.p is = 100/85

Let us first find out the c.p of the plotLet c.p = 100Loss =15%s.p = 100 - 15 = 85/Applying unitary methodIf s.p is 85 than c.p is =100If s.p is 1 than c.p is = 100/85If s.p is 18700 than c. p = (100/85) ×18700 = 22000/-
