Answer

1. Answer : 4


Explanation : Let the borrowing of Company A = x


Interest of Company A = 234000


Rate of Interest = 18% 


x×18100=234000     x=1300000


 


Let the borrowing of Company B = y 


Interest of Company B = 576000


Rate of interest = 24%


y×24100=576000     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 = 100400×100 = 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
