Rs110

Rs106

Rs132

- To find the nominal amount of loss, calculate 20% of the cost price.

- Cost Price (CP) of the wine bottle is Rs660.

- Calculating the 20% loss: \(0.20 \times 660 = 132\).

- Thus, the loss incurred through its sale is Rs132.

- Option 1: Rs112 – This is too low for a 20% loss on Rs660.

- Option 2: Rs110 – This is also too low for a 20% loss on Rs660.

- Option 3: Rs106 – Again, too low for a 20% loss calculation.

- Option 4: Rs132 – This reflects the accurate 20% loss on Rs660.

Option 4: Rs132 is the correct answer.
