Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 50,000


Solution : Here CP denotes cost price and SP denotes selling price.
SP for Vinay = INR 62700
Loss = 5%
CP for Vinay $=\frac{100}{100-\text{Loss}\%}$ × Selling price $= \frac{100}{100-5}×62700=\frac{100}{95}×62700=66000$
SP for Navin = INR 66000
Profit = 20%
CP for Navin $=\frac{100}{100+\text{Profit}\%}$ × Selling price $=\frac{100}{100+20}×66000=\frac{100}{120}×66000=55000$
