Q:

Shivam Industries installed a flour mill for Rs. 300,000 five years ago. If the fixed annual rate of depreciation is 5% and they sold the mill for Rs. 250,000 their gain/loss % is?

 

 

A) No gain - No loss B) Loss 10%
C) Gain 12.5% D) Gain 10%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Gain 10%

Explanation:

Given that mill worth originally =3ooooo

Depreciation for 1 yr =300000x5/100= Rs. 15000

Then, depreciation for 5yrs = Rs. 75000

Value after 5yrs = 300000 - 75000 = Rs. 225000

Given Selling Price of the mill = Rs. 250000

Sp > CP

Gain = 250000 - 225000 = Rs. 25000

Gain% = 25000/250000 x 100 = 10%.

Q:

In three coloured boxes - Red, Green and Blue, 108 balls are placed. There are twice as many balls in the green and red boxes combined as there are in the blue box and twice as many in the blue box as there are in the red box. How many balls are there in the green box ?

A) 76 B) 54
C) 64 D) 48
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 54

Explanation:

Let R, G and B represent the number of balls in red, green and blue boxes respectively.

Then, .

R + G + B = 108 ...(i),

G + R = 2B ...(ii)

B = 2R ...(iii)

From (ii) and (iii), we have G + R = 2x 2R = 4R or G = 3R.

Putting G = 3R and B = 2R in (i), we get:

R + 3R + 2R = 108 6R = 108 R = 18.

Therefore Number of balls in green box = G = 3R = (3 x 18) = 54.
