Really, we can ignore the "20".
Profit = sale price - cost
Profit = revenue - cost
P = R - C
The question wants us to figure out R - C
Statement One:
20*(2R) - 20C = 2400
2R - C = 120
Can't determine R - C
Insufficient.
Statement Two:
20(R + 2) - 20C = 440
20R + 40 - 20C = 440
20R - 20C = 400
R - C = 20
The second statement is independently sufficient.
Choose B.
