A use worth Rs.1,50,000 is sold by X to Y at 5% profit. Y sells the house back to X at 2% loss. Then in the entire transaction:
In the first transaction :
Cost price for X = Rs. 1,50,000
Profit % = 5%
=> Selling price for X = Cost price of Y = $$1,50,000+(\frac{5}{100}\times1,50,000)$$
= $$1,50,000+7500=Rs.$$ $$1,57,500$$
In the second transaction :
Cost price for Y = Rs. 1,57,500
Loss % = 2%
=> Selling price for Y = Cost price of X = $$1,57,500-(\frac{2}{100}\times1,57,500)$$
= $$1,57,500-3150=Rs.$$ $$1,54,350$$
$$\therefore$$ Total profit for X = $$1,57,500-1,54,350=Rs.$$ $$3150$$
=> Ans - (A)
