Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Maintenance,
= Rs. (100 × 5 × 30) + (75 × 10 × 30) + (40 × 18 × 30)
= 15,000 + 22,500 + 21,600
= Rs. 59,100

Total cost = 2,09,100
Amount Received,
= (9 × 250 × 30) + (7 × 400 × 30) + (2 × 600 × 30)
= 67,500 + 84,000 + 36,000
= 1, 87, 500

Loss (%),
$$\eqalign{ & = {\frac{{209100 - 187500}}{{209100}}} \times 100 \cr & = {\frac{{21600}}{{209100}}} \times 100 \cr & = 10.33\% \cr} $$
