  2. B₹7,80,000Correct
  3. C₹7,60,000
  4. D₹9,80,000

Explanation

Advance = 80% × 10,00,000 = ₹8,00,000. Commission = 2% × 10,00,000 = ₹20,000. Net cash = 8,00,000 − 20,000 = ₹7,80,000. Check: 98% of invoice is 9,80,000 less 20% retained 2,00,000 gives 7,80,000. ₹8,00,000 ignores commission; ₹9,80,000 ignores the reserve.
