3. (a)
[latex]Price\quad of\quad tyres\quad =\frac { 20\times 1,00,000 }{ 100 } \times \frac { 15 }{ 100 } =3000[/latex]
[latex]Increased\quad price\quad of\quad tyres\quad =3000\times \frac { 125 }{ 100 } =3750[/latex]
∴ Price should be increased = 3750 – 3000 = ₹ 750
4. (b)
[latex]Increased\quad transmission\quad cost\quad =20,000\times \frac { 120 }{ 100 } =24000[/latex]
∴ increase in transmission cost = 24000 – 20000 = ₹ 4000
Here, this increase will reduce the profit by 4000.

8. (a)
Electricity consumed by all fans = 14 × 80 × 11 × 30 = 369600 W
Electricity consumed by all laptops = 9 × 200 × 5 × 30 = 270000 W
Electricity consumed by all tubelights = 17 × 40 × 8 × 30 = 163200 W
Electricity consumed by all TV’s = 17 × 120 × 8 × 30 = 288000 W
Electricity consumed by 100 W bulb = 11 × 100 × 9 × 30 = 297000 W
hence fans consumed more electricity.
9. (a)
One unit cost = ₹ 2.70.
Power (used by AC’s) Unit cost = ₹ 3.70
Electricity consumed by all equipment (except AC’s)
= (201.6 + 369.6 + 270 + 163.2 + 288 + 297) unit
= (1292.4 + 297.00) unit = 1589.4 unit
Cost for these unit = 1589.4 × 2.7 = 4291.38
Electricity consumed by AC’s
= 11 × 2100 × 9 × 30 W = 623700 W = 6237 Unit
Cost for it = 6237 × 3.7 = 23076.9
Total cost = 23076.9 + 4291.38 = ₹ 27368

From the graph it is obvious that Suraj will get less dividend in 2014 from company A than from B.
Reqd less amount = 3% of 56000 = ₹ 1680
16. (b)
Production of company AVC in 2012 = 360 crore units
Average production of AVC over the given years
[latex s=1]= \frac { 1970 } { 6 }[/latex]
Hence, the required percent
[latex s=1]=\frac { 360\times 6 }{ 1970 } \times 100=109.64%\approx 110%[/latex]
17. (c)
Approximate percent increase or decrease in production from the previous year for SIO are as follows :
[latex]2010 = \frac { 2 } { 85 } \times 100 = 2.35 \%[/latex]
[latex]2011 = \frac { 2 \times 100 } { 87 } = 2.29 \%[/latex]
[latex]2012 = \frac { 2 \times 100 } { 89 } = 2.24 \%[/latex]
[latex]2013 = \frac { 1 \times 100 } { 91 } = 1.09 \%[/latex]
[latex]2014 = \frac { 4 \times 100 } { 92 } = 4.35 \%[/latex]
Quicker method: See the difference of produced units between two consecutive years. The difference is maximum for 2013 to 2014, production during all these years is almost same. Hence, in the year 2014, SIO registered maximum increase in production over the previous year.
18. (d)
Sum of the productions of companies in the first three years and the last three years is as follows :
19. (c)
Total production of the six companies in first two given years = 863 + 927 = 1790
Again, total production of the six companies in last two given years = 989 + 991 = 1980
Therefore, required per cent
[latex s=2]= \frac { 1790 \times 100 } { 1980 } = 90.40 \%[/latex]
20. (b)
The required difference = (91– 92) crore units = 1 × 10000000 = 10000000 units

1. (b)
Required number of people = 21% of 29565
= 6208.65 = 6210
2. (a)
Required difference = 9% of 26345 – 8% of 27456
= 2371.05 – 2196.48 = 174.57 = 175
3. (c)
Number of defaulters of Bank R in the year
2004 = 15% of 25467 = 3820.05
2005 = 17% of 32461 = 5518.37
2006 = 16% of 32652 = 5224.32
2007 = 18% of 32561 = 5860.98
2008 = 13% of 25495 = 3314.35
2009 = 11% of 27649 = 3041.39
2010 = 12% of 28283 = 3393.96
Hence, maximum number of defaulters of Bank R is in the year 2007.
4. (a)
Difference of number of people taking loan from Bank
P from the previous year in the year
2005 = 32081 – 27361 = 4720 ’
2006 = 32081 – 27361 = 6720
2007 = 25361 -23654 = 1707
2008 = 36125 – 35465 = 12471
2009 = 36125-35465 = 660
2010 = 35465-34135 = 1330
Hence, the year is 2008.
