I. Richard got 20% concession on the labeled price.
II. Richard sold the suitcase for Rs 2000 with 25% profit on the labeled price.
Here we have to find the CP of a suitcase for Richard and M represent the labeled price
From Option I we see that he got discount of 20%on Marked Price. But since we do not know the MP it is not possible to determine CP for Richard
