The following pie chart presents the share of raw material, labour, energy, plant & machinery, and transportation costs in the total manufacturing cost of the firm in 2012. The expenditure on labour in 2012 is Rs. 4,50,000. In 2013, the raw material expenses increased by 30% and all other expenses increased by 20%. If the company registered a profit of Rs. 10 lakhs in 2012, at what price (in Rs.) was each air purifier sold?
    1. 30,000
    2. 10,000
    3. 20,000
    4. 25,000
Correct Option: C

Total expenditure

=
15
x = 4,50,000
100

x = 3 × 106
Profit = 10 lakhs
So, total selling price = 40,00,000 ...(1)
Total purifies = 200 ...(2)
S.P. of each purifier = (1)/(2) = 20,000
