Total outlay method, purposed by Marshall, seeks to answer how would any change in the price of a commodity affect the revenue(expenditure) of the firm, by influencing the quantity demanded of that commodity.According to this method, elasticity is measured by comparing expenditure levels before and after any change in price, i.e. whether new expenditure is more than, or less than, or equal to the initial expenditure level. This method helps a seller in taking a decision to raise price only if the reducition in quantity demanded does not reduce total revenue of the seller.

If the commodity was sold at a profit of 5 or a loss of 2 as stated in the question then the question has an many solutions. However, if you assume that the the commodity was sold at a profit of 5% or loss of 2% then the total outlay was 15000. Two thirds of this, worth 10000, was sold at a profit of 5% yielding 10500. One third, worth 5000 was sold at a loss of 2% yielding 4900. The total yield was, therefore 10500 + 4900 = 15400.
