    As we see in the graph the Export graph is higher for 2003 to 2004 years. So we will calculate for this year.
    Required percentage for 2004 = (Export in 2004 - Export in 2003) x 100/Export in 2004

    Correct Option: B

    As we see in the graph the Export graph is higher for 2003 to 2004 years. So we will calculate for this year.
    Required percentage for 2004 = (Export in 2004 - Export in 2003) x 100/Export in 2004
    Required percentage for 2004 = (600 - 200) x 100/200 = 200%

  1. If the experditure of company 'A' in 2004 was Rs. 75 lakhs and income of Company A in 2004 was equal to its experditure in 2005. What was the total income (in lakhs Rs) of the company A in 2004 and 2005 together?

    As given formula in question.
    Profit = Income – Expenditure
    ? Expenditure = Income - Profit
    Profit % = Profit x 100/Expenditure
    Use the formula to find out the Expenditure.

    Correct Option: D

    In 2004, expenditure of Company 'A' = Rs. 75 lakh
    Since, income of the company 'A' in 2004 = 75 + 25/100 x 75 = Rs. 93.75 lakhs
    Now, expenditure of the 'A' in 2005 = Rs. 93.75 lakhs
    Since, their income = 93.75 + 50/100 x 93.75 = Rs. 140.62 lakhs
    Hence total income for both the years = 93.75 + 140.62 = Rs. 234.37 lakhs

    As given formula in question.
    Profit = Income – Expenditure
    ⇒ Expenditure = Income - Profit
    Profit % = Profit x 100/Expenditure
    Use the formula to find out the Expenditure.

    Correct Option: A

    Expenditure = Income - Profit
    As per given graph in question,
    Income in 2005 = 1,42,500 Rs.
    Profit in 2005 = 50%
    Let expenditure of Company A in 2005 = Rs. E; then
    E + E x 50/ 100 =142500
    ⇒ E + E x 1/2 =142500
    ⇒ (2E + E)/2 =142500
    ⇒ 3E =142500 x 2
    ⇒ E =142500 x 2/ 3
    ⇒ E = 47500 x 2
    ⇒ E = Rs. 95000



  1. Expenditure of company B in 2006 was 90% of its expenditure in 2005. Income of Company B in 2006 was what percent of its income in 2005?









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Let expenditure of company B in 2005 = Rs. x; then
    I1(Income) = x + 35/100 x = Rs. 27x/20
    Since . expenditure of company B in 2006 = 90/100 x Rs. x = Rs. 9x/10.then
    I2(Income ) = 9x/10 + 45/100 x 9x/10 = 9x/10 +81x/200 = Rs. 261x/200
    Hence, required percentage = 261x/200/27x20 x 100 = 290/3 = 962/3%

    Correct Option: A

    Let expenditure of company B in 2005 = Rs. x; then
    I1(Income) = x + 35/100 x = Rs. 27x/20
    Since . expenditure of company B in 2006 = 90/100 x Rs. x = Rs. 9x/10.then
    I2(Income ) = 9x/10 + 45/100 x 9x/10 = 9x/10 +81x/200 = Rs. 261x/200
    Hence, required percentage = 261x/200/27x20 x 100 = 290/3 = 962/3%
