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
