According to the given information,

Let’s assume the cost price of mobile phone is Rs. x

Selling Price when profit earned = Cost Price + Profit = Rs. 7090

Selling Price when loss incurred = Cost Price – Loss = Rs. 6570

We know that,

Profit earned and loss incurred are numerically equal.

Adding both the selling prices, we get,

Cost Price + Cost Price = 7090 + 6570

Cost Price = 13660/2

Cost Price of mobile phone = Rs. 6830

To gain 10%, selling price = 6830 + (10% of 6830) = 1.1 × 6830 = Rs. 7513
