1.500000*(42.25-42.5)=(125000)

 

2. loan paid half yearly it means 30 sep and 31 march
not
june and december

so take the avg of 42.90 and 43.90 then deduct 42.50 from this and multiply by 50000 = 45000

then 50000 * (43.50 - 42.50)= 50000
and
4 lac * (43.50 - 42.50)=400000

so 400000+50000+45000=(495000)

the answer is wrong ....loss for next year is 490000 instead of 495000

how the amount of 400000 lakh rs. came ??

NO, Answer is absolutely Correct. I think you incurred a mistake.
