Answers & Solutions :

1.c

40/100 = (I – 400)/400

==> Income = 560

2.a

35/100 = (300 – E)/E
E = 222.22 crore

3.c

35/100 = (I – E1)/E1

==> I = 27E1/20 ---(i)

30/100 = (I – E2)/E2

==> I = 13E2/10

E1/E2 = 26 : 27

4.c

% profit in 2010 = 30%
% profit in 2012 = 40%
% increase = (10/30)*100 = 33.33%

5.b

Company 1 = 60/100 = (I – E)/E

==>I1 = (8/5)*E
Company 2 = 50/100 = (I -E)/E

==>I2 = (3/2)*E
so ratio I1: I2 = 16:15
