Year Salary Fuel and Transport Bonus Interest on Loans Taxes
1998 288 98 3.00 23.4 83
1999 342 112 2.52 32.5 108
2000 324 101 3.84 41.6 74
2001 336 133 3.68 36.4 88
2002 420 142 3.96 49.4 98

The total amount of bonus paid by the company during the given period is approximately what percent of the total amount of salary paid during this period?

  1. 1%
  2. 17%
  3. 10%
  4. 7%

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 1%

Data Question 1 Detailed Solution

Given:

Bonus (in lakh Rs) from 1998 to 2002: 3.00, 2.52, 3.84, 3.68, 3.96

Salary (in lakh Rs) from 1998 to 2002: 288, 342, 324, 336, 420

Formula used:

Percentage = \(\frac{\text{Total Bonus}}{\text{Total Salary}} × 100\)

Calculation:

Total Bonus = 3.00 + 2.52 + 3.84 + 3.68 + 3.96 = 16.99 lakh

Total Salary = 288 + 342 + 324 + 336 + 420 = 1710 lakh

Percentage = \(\frac{16.99}{1710} × 100\)

\(0.993\%\) ≈ 1%

∴ The correct answer is approximately 1%

Data Question 2:

Directions: Study the below given table and answer the given question based on it.

Year Salary Fuel and Transport Bonus Interest on Loans Taxes
1998 288 98 3.00 23.4 83
1999 342 112 2.52 32.5 108
2000 324 101 3.84 41.6 74
2001 336 133 3.68 36.4 88
2002 420 142 3.96 49.4 98
The total expenditure of the company over these items during the year 2001 is:

  1. 599.08 lakhs
  2. 497.08 lakhs
  3. 597.08 lakhs
  4. 537.88 lakhs

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 597.08 lakhs

Data Question 2 Detailed Solution

Given:

Year Salary Fuel and Transport Bonus Interest on Loans Taxes
2001 336 133 3.66 36.4 88

 

Formula used:

Total Expenditure = Salary + Fuel and Transport + Bonus + Interest on Loans + Taxes

Calculations:

Total Expenditure in 2001 = 336 + 133 + 3.68 + 36.4 + 88

Total Expenditure in 2001 = 597.08

∴ The total expenditure of the company over these items during the year 2001 is 597.08.

Data Question 3:

Study the table and answer the question that follows.
 

Measured on birthday Height of the child (in cm)
3rd 90
4th 100
5th 108
6th 115
7th 125
8th 130
9th 140
10th 150
11th 162
12th 170
13th 178
14th 184
15th 190


What was the percentage increase in the height of the child from the 7th birthday to the 10th birthday?

  1. 10%
  2. 20%
  3. 15%
  4. 25%

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 20%

Data Question 3 Detailed Solution

Given:

Height of the child on the 7th birthday = 125 cm

Height of the child on the 10th birthday = 150 cm

Formula used:

Percentage increase = ((New value - Old value) / Old value) × 100

Calculation:

Percentage increase in height from the 7th birthday to the 10th birthday:

⇒ Percentage increase = ((150 - 125) / 125) × 100

⇒ Percentage increase = (25 / 125) × 100

⇒ Percentage increase = 0.2 × 100 = 20%

The percentage increase in the height of the child from the 7th birthday to the 10th birthday is 20%.

Data Question 4:

The data for the production of four products P, Q, R and S by four cities A, B, C and D is given in the table.

Type of Product A B C D
P 1500 1200 1100 1450
Q 1250 1400 1250 1500
R 1600 1150 1150 1300
S 1750 1050 1000 1250
Which product has the highest total production by all cities?

  1. P
  2. R
  3. Q
  4. S

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : Q

Data Question 4 Detailed Solution

Given:

The production data for four products (P, Q, R, S) by four cities (A, B, C, D) is provided.

Formula used:

Total production of a product = Sum of production across all cities

Calculation:

Total production of P = 1500 + 1200 + 1100 + 1450 = 5250

Total production of Q = 1250 + 1400 + 1250 + 1500 = 5400

Total production of R = 1600 + 1150 + 1150 + 1300 = 5200

Total production of S = 1750 + 1050 + 1000 + 1250 = 5050

∴ The product with the highest total production is Q with 5400 units.

Data Question 5:

The following table shows the production (in units) and sales, of different items of a steel company. Study the table and answer the question that follows.

Item Production (Units) Sales (Units)
Plate 252 190
Bowl 356 307
Spoon 185 133
Pipe 220 155
Holder 458 419
In which item is there the least number of unsold items?

  1. Spoon
  2. Holder
  3. Plate
  4. Pipe

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : Holder

Data Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given:

The production (in units) and sales, of different items of a steel company.

Formula used:

Unsold items = Production - Sales

Calculation:

For Plate: Unsold items = 252 - 190 = 62

For Bowl: Unsold items = 356 - 307 = 49

For SpoonUnsold items = 185 - 133 = 52

For PipeUnsold items = 220 - 155 = 65

For HolderUnsold items = 458 - 419 = 39

Hence,

Holder is the item which has least number of unsold items.

We  have 20% of 50 = 10

Therefore Required number:

Number of students scoring less than 10 marks in aggregate

= 100 - Number of students scoring 10 and above marks in aggregate

= 100 - 87

= 13.

The number of students scoring less than 20% marks in aggregate is 13.

Calculation:

Daily wages Interval Frequency (No. of Employee) Mid Value (wages)
80-90 9 85
90-100 3 95
100-110 31 105
110-120 5 115

Now, the average wage of the employees

⇒ (85 × 9 + 95 × 3 + 105 × 31 + 115 × 5 + 125 × 2)/(9 + 3 + 31 + 5 + 2) = 513/5 

⇒ 102.6

⇒ 100 < 102.6 < 110

∴ The average wage of the employees lies between 100-110.

Download Solution PDF

Calculation:

Total students placed in different companies in the year 2014 = 19300 +13400 +13400 + 11800 + 7800 = 65700

Total students placed in different companies in the year 2012 = 12600 + 9800 +10400 + 14900 + 9800 = 57500

Required difference = 65700 - 57500 = 8200 students

∴ The correct answer is 8200.

II. The average income of C1 and C2 in year T is 400.

  1. Only I
  2. Both I and II
  3. Neither I nor II
  4. Only II

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : Only I

Data Question 13 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Calculation:

Total income of C1 in year P = 750

Total income of C2 in year Q = 250

So, required % = (750/250) × 100

⇒ 300%

So, statement I is wrong

Total income of C1 and C2 in T year = 530 + 270

⇒ 800

Average income = 800/2 = 400

So, statement II is correct

∴ The required answer is Option 1.
Mistake Point

We have to find which statement is not correct.

The income of C1 in year P is 300% of the income of C2 in year Q. So statement 1 is not correct.

The average income of C1 and C2 in year T is 400. So statement 2 is correct.

That's why option 1 is the correct answer. Please go through the question again.

Calculation:

Number of accountant after 2015 = 35

Number of accountant after 2016 = 35 + 26 - 16

⇒ 45

Number of accountant after 2017 = 45 + 15 - 5

⇒ 55

Number of accountant after 2018 = 55 + 20 - 38

⇒ 37

Number of accountant after 2019 = 37 + 14 - 24

⇒ 27

∴ The required answer is 27.
