MCQ: Bar Charts - 2 - Question 1

Direction: The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total expenditures of a company under various expense heads during 2003.

Q. If the interest on loans amounted to Rs. 2.45 crores then the total amount of expenditure on advertisement, taxes and research and development is?

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Let the total expenditure be Rs. x crores.

Then, 17.5% of x = 2.45 ⇒ x = 14.

∴ Total expenditure = Rs. 14 crores.

and so, the total expenditure on advertisement, taxes and Research and Development

    = Rs. [(15 + 10 + 5)% of 14] crores

    = Rs. [30% of 14] crores

    = Rs. 4.2 crores.

MCQ: Bar Charts - 2 - Question 2

Direction: The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total expenditures of a company under various expense heads during 2003.

Q. The total amount of expenditures of the company is how many times of expenditure on research and development?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Let the total expenditures be Rs. x.

Then, the expenditure on Research and Development (R & D)

    = Rs. (5% of x)

∴ Ratio of the total expenditure to the expenditure on R & D

Then, the total expenditure is 20 times the expenditure of Research and Development.

MCQ: Bar Charts - 2 - Question 3

Direction: The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total expenditures of a company under various expense heads during 2003.

Q. If the expenditure on advertisement is 2.10 crores then the difference between the expenditure on transport and taxes is?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Let the total expenditure be Rs. x crores.
Then, 15% of x = 2.10

∴ Total expenditure = Rs. 14 crores

and so, the difference between the expenditures on transport and taxes

    = Rs. [(12.5 - 10)% of 14] crores

    = Rs. [2.5% of 14] crores

    = Rs. 0.35 crores

    = Rs. 35 lakhs

MCQ: Bar Charts - 2 - Question 4

Direction: The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total expenditures of a company under various expense heads during 2003.

Q. What is the ratio of the total expenditure on infrastructure and transport to the total expenditure on taxes and interest on loans?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Let the total amount of expenditures be Rs. x.

Then, the total expenditure on infrastruture and transport

    = Rs. [(20 + 12.5)% of x]

    = Rs. [32.5% of x]

and total expenditure on taxes and interest on loans

    = Rs. [(10 + 17.5)% of x]

    = Rs. [27.5% of x]

MCQ: Bar Charts - 2 - Question 5

Direction: The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total expenditures of a company under various expense heads during 2003.

Q. The expenditure on the interest on loans is by what percent more than the expenditure on transport?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Let the total amount of expenditures be Rs. x.
Then, the expenditure on interest on loans =
Rs. (17.5% of x) = Rs.(17.5x /100)
and the expenditure on transport = Rs. (12.5% of x)

∴ Difference between the two expenditures 


and so, the required percentage
