Direction: Study the following graph carefully to answer the questions given below it.
Imports and Exports of spare parts by an automobile company over the given years.
-
During which year the percentage rise/fall in imports from the previous year is the lowest?
-
- 2003
- 2004
- 2006
- 2007
Correct Option: D
As per given graph, we calculate the difference in two consecutive years import.
In 2003, change in imports = (35 - 30)/35 x 100 = 100/7 = 139/7% fall
In In 2004, change in imports = (40 - 30)/ 50 x 100 = 1/3 x 100 = 331/3% rise
In 2006, change in imports = (55 - 50)/50 x 100 = 10% rise
In 2007, change in imports = (60 - 55/55) x 100 = 91/11% rise
Hence, in 2007 the percentage rise/fall in imports from the previous year is the lowest.
