Answer:
Profit gained by 1 bag of white cement = Rs 8
Loss of 1 bag of grey cement = Rs 5
(i) Profit from selling 3000 white cement bags = Rs 3000\times8\ =\ 24000
(ii) Loss from selling 5000 grey cement bags = Rs 5000\times5=\ 25000
since 24000<25000
profit\ <\ loss\
Therefore, his total loss on selling the grey cement bags = loss\ -\ profit\
25000-24000\ =\ 1000
Thus, company has lost of Rs 1000 on selling the grey cement bags.
