Given:

Profit = 10% and Loss = 10%

Difference in selling price = Rs. 5000

Calculations:

Let the cost price of the computer be Rs. x.

Selling price at 10% profit = x + 10% of x = 1.1x

Selling price at 10% loss = x - 10% of x = 0.9x

According to the given condition:

1.1x - 0.9x = 5000

0.2x = 5000

x = 5000 / 0.2

x = 25,000

Cost price of the computer = Rs. 25,000
