Directions (6-10):
6) Answer: c)
Quantity I: In 2018, total income of company A and B is 500 lakhs and the expenditure of both companies is equal. Profit of company B is 20 lakhs more than the profit of company A and the profit percentage of company A is 20%. Company A’s profit is what percentage less than the company B’s profit?
Let us take income of company A in the year 2018 be x lakhs
Income of company B in the year 2018 be (x+20) lakhs
Total income of company A and B in the year 2018 = 500 lakhs
X+x+20= 500
2x = 500 – 20 => 480
= > x = 240 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2018 = 120% of Expenditure of company A in the year 2018
240 = 120/100 * Expenditure of company A in the year 2018
Expenditure of company A in the year 2018 = (240/120)*100 = 200 lakhs
Company A’s profit = 240 – 200 = 40 lakhs
Company B’s income = 260 lakhs
Company B’s expenditure = 260 – (40+20)
= 260 – 60 = 200 lakhs
Required percentage = [(60 – 40)/60] * 100
= > (20/60) * 100 = 33 (1/3) %
Quantity II: Total income of company A and B in the year 2014 is approximately what percentage more/less than the total income of company A and B together in the year 2016?
Total income of company A and B in the year 2014 = (125 + 162.5) = 287.5 lakhs
Total income of company A and B in the year 2016 = (165 + 132) = 297 lakhs
Required percentage = [(297 – 287.5)/297] * 100 = 3.19 %
Quantity III: Total expenditure of company B in the year 2013 and 2014 together is what percentage more/less than the total expenditure of company A in the year 2012 and 2014 together?
Total expenditure of company B in the year 2012 and 2014 = (100 +125)
= 225 lakhs
Total expenditure of company A in the year 2012 and 2014 = (120+100)
= 220 lakhs
Required percentage = [(225 – 220)/220] * 100
= 2.27%
Quantity I > Quantity II > Quantity III
7) Answer: b)
Quantity I: Find the difference of total income of company A in the year 2015, 2016 and 2017 together to that of total expenditure of company B in the year 2012, 2013 and 2014 together?
Total income of company A in the year 2015, 2016 and 2017
= 75*(115/100) + 150*(110/100) + 200*(124/100)
= (86.25 + 165 + 248)
= 499.25 lakhs
Total expenditure of company B in the year 2012, 2013 and 2014
= (144 + 100 + 125)
= 369 lakhs
Required difference = 499.25 – 369 = 130.25 lakhs
Quantity II: What is the average income of company B in the year 2014 and 2015 together?
Total income of company B in the year 2014 and 2015 = (162.5 + 124) = 286.5
Required average = (286.5/2) = 143.25 lakhs
Quantity III: In 2012, total expenditure of company A is 20% more than the previous year. The income of company A in the year 2013 is 20% less than the income of company A in the year 2011. Find the profit of company A in the year 2011?
Expenditure of company A in the year 2012 = (120/100)*Expenditure of company B in the year 2011
120 = (120/100)*Expenditure of company A in the year 2011
Expenditure of company A in the year 2011 = (120/120)*100 = 100 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2013 = (80/100)*Income of company A in the year 2011
104 = (80/100)*Income of company B in the year 2011
Income of company B in the year 2011 = (104/80)*100 = 130 lakhs
Profit of company B in the year 2011 = 130 – 100 = 30 lakhs
Quantity I < Quantity II > Quantity III
8) Answer: e)
Quantity I: In 2015, if the expenditure of company A is decreased by 25% and the income of company A is increased by 30%. Find the new profit percentage of company A?
Expenditure of company A in the year 2015 after decrement = 75*(75/100)
= 56.25 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2015 after increment = 86.25*(130/100)
= 112.125 lakhs
Required percentage = [(112.125 – 56.25)/56.25] * 100 = 99.33%
Quantity II: In 2016, if the income of company B is decreased by 20% and the profit is decreased by (x) %. Find the value of x, if the expenditure is same.
Income of company B in the year 2016 after decrement = 132 * 80/100
= 105.6 lakhs
Expenditure of company B in the year 2016 = 100 lakhs
Profit = 105.6 – 100 = 5.6 lakhs
Percentage of profit decreased = [(32 – 5.6)/32]*100 = 82.5 %
Quantity III: Total income of company B in the year 2013 is what percentage more/less than the total expenditure of company A in the same year?
Required percentage = [(120 – 80)/80]*100
= (40/80)*100 = 50%
Quantity I > Quantity II > quantity III
9) Answer: b)
Quantity I: In Company A, expenditure in the year 2012, 2014 and 2016 is increased by x %, (x+10) % and (x+15) % respectively. Find the new income of company A in the year 2012, 2014 and 2016 together, if the total expenditure of company A in the year 2012, 2014 and 2016 together after increment is 439.5 lakhs and the profit percentage is same as previous?
Expenditure of company A in the year 2012, 2014 and 2016 after increment
= 439.5 lakhs
120 * (100+x)/100 + 100 * (100+x+10)/100 + 150 * (100+x+15)/100 = 439.5
120 * (100+x) + 100 * (110+x)+150 * (115+x) = 43950
12000 + 120x + 11000 + 100x + 17250 + 150x = 43950
370x = 43950 – 17250 – 11000 – 12000
370x = 3700
= > x= 3700/370 = 10%
Expenditure of company A in the year 2012 after increment = 120 * 110/100
= 132 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2012 after increment = 132 * 120/100
= 158.4 lakhs
Expenditure of company A in the year 2014 after increment = 100*120/100
= 120 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2014 after increment = 120 * 125/100
= 150 lakhs
Expenditure of company A in the year 2016 after increment = 150 * 125/100
= 187.5 lakhs
Income of company A in the year 2016 after increment = 187.5 * 110/100
= 206.25 lakhs
Required total income of company A in the year 2012, 2014 and 2016
= (158.4 + 150 + 206.25) = 514.65 lakhs
Quantity II: In Company B, the income in the year 2013, 2015 and 2017 is decreased by 20%, 24% and 32% respectively. Find the new expenditure in the year 2013, 2015 and 2017 together if the profit percentage is same as previous?
Income of company B in the year 2013 after decrement = 120* 80/100
= 96 lakhs
Expenditure of company B in the year 2013 after decrement = 96*100/120
= 80 lakhs
Income of company B in the year 2015 after decrement = 124 * 76/100
= 94.24 lakhs
Expenditure of company B in the year 2015 after decrement = 94.24*100/124
= 76 lakhs
Income of company B in the year 2017 after decrement = 375 * 68/100
= 255 lakhs
Expenditure of company B in the year 2017 after decrement = 255 * 100/125
= 204 lakhs
Required total = 80 + 76 + 204 = 360 lakhs
Quantity III: Find the total income of company B in the year 2014, 2015 and 2016 together?
Required total income = 162.5 + 124 + 132 = 418.5 lakhs
Quantity I > Quantity II < Quantity III
10) Answer: d)
Quantity I: Find the sum of the third highest and lowest income of company A in the given years?
Required sum = 144 + 86.25 = 230.25 lakhs
Quantity II: Find the sum of the second highest and second lowest expenditure of company B in the given years?
Required sum =144 + 100 = 244 lakhs
Quantity III: Find the sum of the highest and second highest profit of company A in the given years?
Required sum = 48 + 25 = 73 lakhs
Quantity I < Quantity III > Quantity II
