Question
A particular shop sells goods at cost. A person buys goods worth Rs.60 from the shop and gives the shopkeeper a Rs.100 note. As the shopkeeper does not have change to give his customer, he exchanges this Rs.100 note for 6 Rs.10 notes and 2 Rs. 20 notes from the bank to settle accounts with the customer. The next day, the banker returns the Rs.100 note claiming it to be a counterfeit and takes two Rs.50 notes from the shopkeeper. If the note was actually a counterfeit, what is the total loss to the shopkeeper?

B .  Rs. 130
C .  Rs. 100
