By selling an article for $$₹ 600$$, a shopkeeper makes a profit of 20%. At what price should he sell the article to incur a loss of 20% ?
Let the cost price = C.P
Given,
Profit% = 20%
Selling price = $$₹ 600$$
$$=$$> $$\frac{120}{100}\text{C.P}=600$$
$$=$$> $$\text{C.P}=500$$
$$\therefore\ $$Selling price when loss is 20% = $$\frac{80}{100}\text{C.P}=\frac{80}{100}\times500=₹ 400$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
