(B) Stock purchased by investing $Rs.\, 28500$ in $5\%$ stock at $95$ is calculated as:$= Rs.\, \left(\frac{100}{95} 	imes 28500ight) = Rs.\, 30000$.Money realized by selling $Rs.\, 15000$ stock at a market value of $Rs.\, 98$ is:$= Rs.\, \left(\frac{98}{100} 	imes 15000ight) = Rs.\, 14700$.Remaining stock $= Rs.\, (30000 - 15000) = Rs.\, 15000$.Money realized by selling the remaining $Rs.\, 15000$ stock at $Rs.\, 90$ is:$= Rs.\, \left(\frac{90}{100} 	imes 15000ight) = Rs.\, 13500$.Total money realized $= Rs.\, (14700 + 13500) = Rs.\, 28200$.Money invested $= Rs.\, 28500$.Since the total money realized is less than the money invested,there is a loss.Loss $= Rs.\, (28500 - 28200) = Rs.\, 300$.
