Solution

The correct option is D Moon, Earth
To buy 100 kg of gold, a place with lower gravitational force will be preferred as a lot of gold will be needed to fill the 100 kg quota. And to sell it, a place with higher gravitational force is preferred as that 100 kg will seem more than 100 kg in this place, thus giving the person excess of gold.
Thus gold must be purchased on the moon and sold on earth if a choice is given.
