Correct Answer: 16.66%
Explanation:
At 25% profit
If cost price is Tk 100, then selling price would be 125 Tk.
1f selling price is 125 tk. then cost price would be = 100 Tk.
1f selling price is 4000 tk. then cost price would be = 3,200 Tk.
Total cost price of two commodities = 4,000 + 4,000 = 8,000 Tk.
Then the cost price of another commodity = 8,000 – 3,200 = 4,800 Tk.
But the sold another commodity at 4,000 Tk.
So he loses = 4,800 — 4,000 = 800 Tk.
loss % = 800 / 4800 = 16.66 %8004800 = 16.66
