ANSWERS With
Solutions:
1. Answer:
(D)
DIFFERENCE = Rs.
[(10% of 4.75) - (8% of 4.75)]
= Rs. (2% of 4.75)
lakhs
= Rs. 0.095 lakhs
= Rs. 9500.
2. Answer:
(D)
Let the amounts
invested in 2002 in Companies P and Q be Rs. 8x and Rs.
9xrespectively.
Then, interest
received after one year from Company P = Rs. (6% of 8x)
= Rs. (48x/100)
and interest
received after one year from Company Q = Rs. (4% of 9x)
= Rs. (36x/100)
Required ratio = 4/3
3. Answer:
(D)
4. Answer:
(C)
Amount received from
Company P after one year (i.e., in 199) on investing Rs. 12 lakhs in
it
= Rs. [12 + (8% of
12)] lakhs
= Rs. 12.96 lakhs.
Appreciation
received on investment during the period of two years
= Rs. (14.256 - 12)
lakhs
= Rs. 2.256 lakhs =
Rs. 2, 25,600
5. Answer:
(B)
Amount received from
Company Q after one year on investment of Rs. 5 lakhs in the year
1996
= Rs. [5 + (6.5% of
5)] lakhs
= Rs. 5.325 lakhs.
Amount received from
Company P after one year on investment of Rs. 5.325 lakhs in the year
1997
= Rs. [5.325 + (9%
of 5.325)] lakhs
= Rs. 5.80425 lakhs
= Rs. 5, 80, 425
6. Answer:
(D)
Let the expenditure
in 1996 = x.
Also, let the
incomes in 1996 and 1999 be I1 and I2 respectively.
Then, for the year
1996, we have:
55 =( I1 –
x)/(x)*100 è I1= 155x/100 --- (1)
70 = ( I2 – x
)/(x) * 100 è I2 = 170x/100 ----- (2)
From (i) and (ii),
we get:
I1 /II2 = 155/170 @
0.91/1 @ 9/10
7. Answer:
(C)
Let the expenditure
is 1998 be Rs. x crores.
Then, [65 =( 264
–x)/ x] * 100
x = 160
Expenditure in 1998
= Rs. 160 crores
8. Answer:
(D)
The line-graph gives
the comparison of percent profit for different years.
But the comparison
of the expenditures is not possible without more data.
Therefore, the year
with minimum expenditure cannot be determined.
9. Answer:
(D)
From the line-graph
we obtain information about the percentage profit only. To find the
profit in 2000 we must have the data for the income or expenditure in
2000.
Therefore the profit
for 2000 cannot be determined.
10. Answer:
(B)
Average percent
profit earned for the given years
= (1/6) x [40 + 55 +
45 + 65 + 70 + 60] = 55 5/6
