 The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ₹45,000

Given:

M.P. = ₹60,000

Discount on cash payment = ₹12,000

Additional dicount = 5%

Formula USed:

S.P.=M.P.×(100−D)100S.P. = M.P. \times {(100 - D) \over 100}

Explanation:

According to the given question,

Selling price given by regukar customer = S.P.1=60,000×(100−5)100S.P._1 = 60,000 \times {(100 - 5) \over 100}

Selling price paid in cash = 57,000 - 12,000 = 45,000

Hence the required answer is ₹45,000.
