5. What is the sum of the borrowings of all five companies ?

1. Rs.146 lakh 2. Rs.14.6 lakh 3. Rs.14.6 crore 4. None of these

Answer

1. Answer : 4

Explanation : Let the borrowing of Company A = x

Interest of Company A = 234000

Rate of Interest = 18%

$∴ x \times \frac{18}{100} = 234000 \Rightarrow x = 1300000$

Let the borrowing of Company B = y

Interest of Company B = 576000

Rate of interest = 24%

$∴ y \times \frac{24}{100} = 576000 \Rightarrow y = 2400000$

Required difference = y - x = 2400000 - 1300000 = Rs. 1100000

2. Answer : 2

Explanation :

Let the profit of Comapny B = 100%

Dividend Payout ratio(%) of B = 19.60

Remaining percent i.e retained earning = 100 - 19.60 = 80.4%

According to question, 80.4% = Rs.402 lakh

100% = Rs.500 lakh

Therefore, Total dividend paid by Company B = 500 - 402 = Rs. 98 lakh

Let the profit of company D = 100%

Dividend payout ratio (%) of D = 32.50

Remaining percent i.e retained earning = 100 - 32.50 = 67.5%

According to question, 67.5% = Rs. 270 lakh

100% = Rs. 400 lakh

Therefore, Total dividend paid by company D = 400 - 270 = Rs. 130 lakh

Required difference = 130 - 98 = Rs. 32 lakh

3. Answer : 3

Explanation :

Let the profit of Company C = 100%

Dividend payout ratio of C = 8.75%

Remaining percent i.e, retained earning = 100 - 8.75 = 91.25

According to question, 91.25% = Rs. 365 lakh

100% = Rs. 400 lakh

Therefore, Profit of C = Rs. 400 lakh

Let the profit of company E = 100%

Dividend payout ratio of E = 28%

Remaining percent i.e retained earning = 100 - 28 = 72%

According to question, 72% = Rs.216 lakh

100% = Rs.300 lakh

Therefore, Profit of E = Rs. 300 lakh

Required percentage = $\frac{100}{400} \times 100$ = 25% less

4. Answer : 3

Explanation :

Profit made by company A = Rs. 200 lakh

Profit made by company B = Rs. 500 lakh

Required Sum = 200 + 500 = Rs. 700 lakh

5. Answer : 4

Explanation :

Required Sum = 1300000 + 2400000 + 810000 + 1600000 + 1200000 = 7310000 = Rs. 73.1 lakh

The following bar graph indicates the production of sugar (in lakh tonnes) by three different sugar companies P, Q and R over years 2009 to 2013.

Production of Sugar by Companies P, Q and R during 2009 - 2013

1. The percentage increase in production of Company Q from the year 2009 to the year 2013 is :

1. 80% 2. 90% 3. 60% 4. 100%

2. The average production over the years 2009 - 2013 was maximum for the Company(ies):

1. Q 2. P 3. R 4. P and R

3. The percentage rise or fall in production of Company Q as compared to the previous year is the maximum in the year :

1. 2011 2. 2010 3. 2013 4. 2012

4. The percentage of production of Company R to Production of Company Q is the maximum in the year

1. 2010 2. 2009 3. 2011 4. None of these

5. The ratio of the average production of Company P during the years 2011 to 2013 to the average production of Company Q for the same period is :

1. 23 : 25 2. 27 : 29 3. 15 : 17 4. 9 : 11

Answer

1. Answer : 4

Explanation : Required Percentage = $\frac{100 - 50}{50} \times 100$ = 100%

2. Answer : 4

Explanation : The average production of P = $\frac{60 + 90 + 50 + 100 + 80}{5}$ = 76

The average production of Q = $\frac{50 + 70 + 70 + 80 + 100}{5}$ = 74

The average production of R = $\frac{70 + 80 + 90 + 70 + 70}{5}$ = 76

Maximum average production = P and R both

3. Answer : 2

Explanation : The percentage rise in 2010 = $\frac{70 - 50}{50} \times 100$ = 40%

The percentage rise in 2011 = $\frac{70 - 70}{70} \times 100$ = 0%

The percentage rise in 2012 = $\frac{80 - 70}{70} \times 100$ = 14.28%

The percentage rise in 2013 = $\frac{100 - 80}{80} \times 100$ =25%

4. Answer : 2

Explanation : The percentage of production of Company R to production of Company Q

in 2009 = $\frac{70}{50} \times 100$ = 140

in 2010 = $\frac{80}{70} \times 100$ = 114.28

in 2011 = $\frac{90}{70} \times 100$ = 128.57

in 2012 = $\frac{70}{80} \times 100$ = 87.5

in 2013 = $\frac{70}{100} \times 100$ = 70

5. Answer : 1

Explanation : Average production of company P during the years 2011 to 2013 = $\frac{50 + 100 + 80}{3}$ = $\frac{230}{3}$

Average production of company Q during the years 2011 to 2013 = $\frac{70 + 80 + 100}{3}$ = $\frac{250}{3}$

Required ratio = 23 : 25

Q:

A man has a certain number of small boxes to pack into parcles. If he packs 3, 4, 5 or 6 in a parcel, he is left with one over; if he packs 7 in a parcle, none is left over. What is the number of boxes, he may have to pack?

A) 106	B) 301
C) 309	D) 400

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 301

Explanation:

Clearly, the required number would be such that it leaves a remainder of 1 when divided by 3, 4, 5, or 6 and no remainder when divided by 7. Thus, the number must be of the form (L.C.M of 3, 4, 5, 6) x + 1 i.e., (60x + 1 ) and a multiple of 7. Clearly, for x = 5, the number is a multiple of 7. So the number is 301.
