Expert Answer
Let price of a commodity be Rs. x.
Price of a commodity decreased by 10 % last year.
Hence, price of a commodity in this year is (100 - 10/100 × 100) = Rs. 90
Price of a commodity increased by 20 % this year.
Hence, price of a commodity in this year is 90 + 20/100 × 90 = Rs. 108
The percentage change in two years = 8/100 × 100 = 8%
