Answer 2

Answer:

goods lost in transit = 1/10th

cost of lost goods= 40000

if 1/10th goods' s price is =40000

if 1 good's price is =40000×10/1

if 9/10th good's price is= 40000× 10/1×9/10

the price of remaining goods = 3,60,000

+ 33.33% as profit =1,20,000

ip of goods sent out is 4,80,000

( aap 33.33% ki jagah 20% se nikaalo toh answer 4,32,000 aata h aur ye option mein ni h aur m.com entrence book mein waha 33.33% se nikla hua h in questions ko nikaalne ka right method yahi h)
