Q:

A man spend 20% of his monthly salary on his children's education and 50% of his salary on food and transport. After Paying the rent of Rs.1000, he is left with Rs.2000. What is his monthly salary?

A) 7000	B) 10000
C) 14000	D) 20000

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 10000

Explanation:

Let his monthly salary be 'P'

20% on children's education = $\frac{20 P}{100} = \frac{P}{5}$

50% on food and transport = $\frac{50 P}{100} = \frac{P}{2}$

1000 on rent

=> $P - \frac{P}{5} - \frac{P}{2} - 1000 = 2000 = > 3 P = 30000 = > P = 10000$

Therefore, his monthly salary = Rs. 10,000

Q:

If the labour cost 20% of the cost of production and raw material cost 10% of the cost of production and the price on which article is sold is 20% above the cost of production. If the price of labour is increased by 40% and the price of raw material increased by 20% and rest other expenditure of cost remain constant. The industry thus decide to increase the selling price by 10%. Find the new profit percent ?

A) 18%	B) 20%
C) 22%	D) 24%

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20%

Explanation:

Let the Cost of Production of the article = 100

Then, Labour Cost = 20

Raw Material = 10

Other Expenditure = 100 - 10 – 20 = 70

Selling Price of the article = 120

After increasing Labour and Raw material cost by 40% & 20% respectively,

New Labour cost = 28

New Raw material cost = 12

New Cost of Production = 70 + 28 + 12 = 110

Then, New SP = 110% of 120 = 120 x 110/100 = 132

=> New Gain = 132 - 110 = 22

=> New Profit % = 22 x 100/110 = 20%

From the given data,
(60 - 45)% = 12.5 + 4
15% = 16.5
=> 100% = ?
100% = 16.5 x 100/15 = 110

Hence, P = 45% of 110 = 45x110/100 = 49.5
Q = 50% of 110 = 55
R = 60% of 110 = 60 x 110/100 = 66
M = 12.5 + 49.5 = 62 or 66 - 4 = 62

Hence, no statement is required to answer.
