A house and shop were sold for Rs. 1 lakh each. In this transaction the house sell resulted into 20% loss whereas the shop sell resulted into 20% of profit. The entire transaction resulted in:

Options:
A .  no loss no gain
B .  loss of Rs. 1/12 lakh
C .  loss of Rs. 1/18 lakh
D .  gain of Rs.1/24 lakh
E .  None of these
Answer: Option B
 -    Total S.P = Rs. 2 lakh.
  C.P of house = Rs. (100/80 x 1)lakh = Rs 5/4 lakh
  C.P of shop = Rs. (100/120 x 1)lakh = Rs. 5/6 lakh
  Total C.P = Rs. (5/4 + 5/6)lakh = Rs. 25/12 lakh
 
   ∴ loss = Rs.(25/12 – 2)lakh = Rs. 1/12 lakh.
