Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ \because $ CP of an item = Rs. 46000 and loss per cent =12%

$ \therefore $ SP of an item $ =\frac{46000\times (100-12)}{100} $ $ =\frac{46000\times 88}{100}=Rs.40480 $ Now, SP of another item $ =\frac{40480\times (100+12)}{100} $ $ =\frac{40480\times 112}{100}=Rs.45337.60 $ Total loss $ =(46000-45337.60)=Rs.,662.40 $
