a. 2012
b. 2013

Show Correct Answers

C. 2014

Number of laptops sold at some profit in 2012 = 9600+320+64 = 9984
Number of laptops sold at loss in 2012 = 1920+480+16 = 2416
Ratio = 9984/2416 = 4.13
Number of laptops sold at some profit in 2013 = 10920+1560+320 = 12800
Number of laptops sold at loss in 2013 = 2240+840+120 = 3200
Ratio = 12800/3200 = 4
Number of laptops sold at some profit in 2014 = 12750+3750+900 =17400
Number of laptops sold at loss in 2014 = 3060+1190+350 = 4600

Ratio = 17400/4600 = 3.78
Number of laptops sold at some profit in 2015 = 11520+8640+2400 = 22560
Number of laptops sold at loss in 2015 = 3200+1280+960 = 5440

Ratio = 22560/5440 = 4.15
Number of laptops sold at some profit in 2016 = 9100+14000+4400=27500
Number of laptops sold at loss in 2016 = 2860+1040+1600 = 5500

Ratio = 27500/5500 = 5

Therefore, the ratio of number of laptops sold at some profit to the ratio of number of laptops sold at loss by the two companies together was minimum in 2014.

Total revenue of GM in 2012 =11250*(9600*1.2 + 1920*0.8 + 480*0.5) = Rs. 149580000
Total revenue of GM in 2013 = 11900*(10920*1.2 + 2240*0.8 +840*0.5) = Rs. 182260400
Total revenue of GM in 2014 = 12700*(12750*1.2 + 3060*0.8 + 1190*0.5) = Rs. 232956100
Total revenue of GM in 2015 = 13700*(11520*1.2 + 3200*0.8 +1280*0 5) = Rs 233228800

Total revenue of GM in 2016 = 14900*(9100*1.2+2860*0.8+1040*0.5) = Rs. 204547200

Therefore, revenue of GM was maximum in 2015.

E. 42.9%

Combined cost of the two companies in 2012 = 11250*12000 + 15000*400 = Rs. 141000000
Combined revenue of the two companies in 2012 = 11250* (9600*1.2 + 1920*0.8 + 480*0.5) + 15000*(320*1.3 + 64*1.1 + 16*0.9)
= Rs. 157092000
Combined profit percentage of the two companies in 2012 = (157092000 – 141000000)*100/141000000 = 11.41%
Combined cost of the two companies in 2016 = 14900*13000 + 17000*20000 = Rs. 533700000

Combined revenue of the two companies in 2016 = 14900*(9100*1.2+2860*0.8+1040*0.5)+17000*(14000*1.3+4400*1.1+1600*0.9) = Rs. 620707200

Combined profit percentage of the two companies in 2016 = (620707200 – 533700000)*100/533700000 = 16.30%

Therefore, required percentage = 100*(16.30-11.41)/11.41=42.86%

Total income of the five cafes in 2011 = 85+95+75+45+35 = 335
Percentage increase in total income over previous year = 100*(335 – 275)/275 = 21.8%
Total income of the five cafes in 2012 = 115+100+90+65+55 = 425
Percentage increase in total income over previous year = 100*(425 – 335)/335 = 26.9%
Total income of the five cafes in 2013 = 125+110+110+95+85 = 525

Percentage increase in total income over previous year = 100*(525 – 425)/425 = 23.53%
Total income of the five cafes in 2014 = 145+120+140+125+110 = 640

Percentage increase in total income over previous year = 100*(640-525)/525 = 21.9%
