Solution

The correct option is C 1,20,000.
Cost of goods sold = 10,000 x Rs. 50 per kg + 2,000 x Rs. 60 per kg
= 5,00,000 + 1,20,000
= Rs. 6,20,000
Sales = 2,000 x Rs. 70 per kg + 10,000 xRs. 60 per kg
= 1,40,000 + 6,00,000
= Rs. 7,40,000
Profit = sales - cost of goods sold
= 7,40,000 - 6,20,000
= Rs. 1,20,000
