The retailer buys the commodity at Rs 20 per kg and sells it at Rs 30 per kg. Any commodity remaining at the end of the day has no saleable value.

The first random number in the pair is for supply and the second random number is for demand viz. in the first pair (31, 18), use 31 to simulate supply and 18 to simulate demand. (CA, Nov. 2000)
