D Correct answer
Explanation

Statement III gives CP = 48000 + 2000 = 50000. Statement I says discount = 10000 and profit = 40%, so SP = 50000 * 1.4 = 70000. Marked Price = SP + discount = 70000 + 10000 = 80000. Statement II (discount = 12.5% of MP) is not needed and can be used for verification: 10000/80000 = 12.5% ✓. Only I and III are sufficient.
