60% of (150000+1500) i.e. 90900
I have assumed its " A draws a bill on B"
Thank you for your help!
I want to know the logic behind taking 60%.
I want to know the logic behind taking 60%..please explain it!
Only 40 paisa in a rupee is recoverable which means if his liability is of re 1 then he can repay only 40 paise and there is deficiency of 60 paise. So if liability is of 151500 then deficiency is (151500*0.6) i.e. 60% of 151500
Ok Thank you soo much!!
