Anusha purchased a television and a camera for ₹12,000 and ₹8,000, respectively.

Cost price of television = ₹12,000

Cost price of camera = ₹8,000

She sold the television at a loss of 10 percent and the camera at a profit of 12 percent.

Selling price of television = ₹12,000 of (100-10)%

= ₹12,000 of 90%

= $$12000\times\frac{90}{100}$$

= ₹10800

Selling price of camera = ₹8,000 of (100+12)%

= ₹8,000 of 112%
= $$8000\times\frac{112}{100}$$

= ₹8960

Cost price of camera and television = ₹12,000+₹8,000 = ₹20,000

Selling price of camera and television = ₹8960+₹10800 = ₹19760

Here the Cost price is more than Selling price. So overall loss = ₹20,000-₹19760

= ₹240
