    C Rs.5000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.3000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the MRP of motor-cycle is 6x. ∴ Discount = 40/3 % of 6x = 0.8x ∴ Rohan bought this motor-cycle for 5.2x. He earns 2.6x by renting it and resells it at 3x. ATQ, 3x + 2.6x – 5.2x = 400 0.4x = 400 ⇒ x = 1000 ∴ MRP = 6x = 6 × 1000 = Rs. 6000
