10. Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z together, during various years are:
In 1993 = (30 + 80 + 60) = 170
In 1994 = (60 + 40 + 90) = 190
In 1995 = (40 + 60 + 120) = 220
In 1996 = (70 + 60 + 90) = 220
In 1997 = (100 + 80 + 60) = 240
In 1998 = (50 + 100 + 80) = 230
In 1999 = (120 + 140 + 100) = 360
Clearly, the total exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z together are same during the years

11. Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Analysis of the graph: From the graph it is clear that
1. The amount of exports of Company X (in Pesetas) in the years 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997,
1998 and 1999 are 30, 60, 40, 70, 100, 50 and 120 respectively.
2. The amount of exports of Company Y (in Pesetas.) in the years 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997,
1998 and 1999 are 80, 40, 60, 60, 80, 100 and 140 respectively.
3. The amount of exports of Company Z (in Pesetas) in the years 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997,
1998 and 1999 are 60, 90,, 120, 90, 60, 80 and 100 respectively.
Average annual exports (in Pesetas) of Company Y during the given period
= 1/7 x (80 + 40 + 60 + 60 + 80 + 100 + 140) = 560/7= 80.
Average annual exports (in Pesetas) of Company Z during the given period
= 1/7 x (60 + 90 + 120 + 90 + 60 + 80 + 100) = (600/7 ) .
Therefore Required percentage =

12. Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The difference between the exports from the Companies X and Y during the various years are:
In 1993 = (80 - 30) = 50
In 1994 = (60 - 40) = 20
In 1995 = (60 - 40) = 20
In 1996 = (70 - 60) = 10
In 1997 = (100 - 80) = 20
In 1998 = (100 - 50) = 50
In 1999 = (140 - 120) = 20
Clearly, the difference is minimum in the year 1996.
13. Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Average exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z in 1993
= [ 1/3 x (30 + 80 + 60) ] = ( 170/3)
Average exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z in 1998
= [1/3 x (50 + 100 + 80) ] = (230/3)
Difference [ ( 230/3) - ( 170/3) ]
= ( 60/3) = 20

14. Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Average annual exports of Company Z during the given period
= 1/7 x (60 + 90 + 120 + 90 + 60 + 80 + 100)
= ( 600/7) = 85.71

From the analysis of graph the exports of Company Z are more than the average annual exports
of Company Z (i.e., 85.71) during the years 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1999, i.e., during 4 of the
given years.

= [1200000 + (8% of 1200000)]

= 1296000

Amount received from Company P after one year on investing 1296000 in the year 1999

= [1296000 + (10% of 1296000)]

= 1425600

Appreciation received on investment during the period of two years

= (1425600 - 1200000)

= 225600

= 2,25,600.

28. Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Amount received from Company Q after one year on investment of 500000 in the year 1996

= [500000 + (6.5% of 500000)]

= 532500

Amount received from Company P after one year on investment of 532500 in the year 1997

= [532500 + (9% of 532500)]

= 580425

= 5,80,425.

34. Answer – (B)


Solution:
From the bar – graph we get to know that the number of competitors of C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C7
and C8 is 1, 3, 6, 4, 7, 3 and 6 respectively.
Since C5 is the competitor of each of the other companies, therefore the only competitor of C1 is
C5.
Let’s consider C3: Number of competitors is 6.
We know for sure that C1 is not the competitor of C3; therefore the six competitors of C3 are C2,
C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8.
Similarly C8: Number of competitors is 6 and the competitors of C8 are C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 and
C7.
Therefore competitors of C7 are C5, C3 and C8 and competitors of C2 are C5, C3 and C8.
Since the competitors of C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 and C8 are known and fixed by us, the third
competitor has to be C6.
Therefore the competitors of C6 are C5, C3, C8 and C4.
Now consider C4: Out of the four competitors it has, three are C5, C3 and C8.
So number of competitors of C6 is 4
35. Answer – (E)
Solution:
From the bar – graph we get to know that the number of competitors of C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C7
and C8 is 1, 3, 6, 4, 7, 3 and 6 respectively.
Since C5 is the competitor of each of the other companies, therefore the only competitor of C1 is
C5.
Let’s consider C3: Number of competitors is 6.
We know for sure that C1 is not the competitor of C3; therefore the six competitors of C3 are C2,
C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8.
Similarly C8: Number of competitors is 6 and the competitors of C8 are C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 and
C7.
Therefore competitors of C7 are C5, C3 and C8 and competitors of C2 are C5, C3 and C8.

Since the competitors of C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 and C8 are known and fixed by us, the third
competitor has to be C6.
Therefore the competitors of C6 are C5, C3, C8 and C4.
Now consider C4: Out of the four competitors it has, three are C5, C3 and C8.
Since the number of competitors of C1, C2 and C7 is 1, 3 and 3 respectively, therefore the
number of competitors who sell furniture in the regions in which either of C1, C2 and C7 sell
furniture can be at most 4.
So the region in which maximum possible numbers of competitors sell furniture is the one that
sells C4 or C6.
So, such a region could possibly have C5, C4, C6, C3 and C8.
Hence at most 5 competitors can sell furniture in one region.

36. Answer – (A)


Solution:
From the bar – graph we get to know that the number of competitors of C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C7
and C8 is 1, 3, 6, 4, 7, 3 and 6 respectively.
Since C5 is the competitor of each of the other companies, therefore the only competitor of C1 is
C5.

Let’s consider C3: Number of competitors is 6.


We know for sure that C1 is not the competitor of C3; therefore the six competitors of C3 are C2,
C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8.
Similarly C8: Number of competitors is 6 and the competitors of C8 are C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 and
C7.
Therefore competitors of C7 are C5, C3 and C8 and competitors of C2 are C5, C3 and C8.
Since the competitors of C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 and C8 are known and fixed by us, the third
competitor has to be C6.
Therefore the competitors of C6 are C5, C3, C8 and C4.
Now consider C4: Out of the four competitors it has, three are C5, C3 and C8.
Given that there is one region where no company sold furniture. Let R4 be such a region.
Assume that C1 sells furniture in region R1, so the other company that sells furniture in R1 has
to be C5.
Since C7 has three competitors, therefore the number of companies selling furniture in the region
where C7 sells is 4.
Let’s assume C7 sells in R2, therefore the complete list of companies selling furniture in R2 is
C5, C7, C3 and C8.

The same holds true for C2, which has three competitors.
Let’s assume C2 sells in R3, therefore the complete list of companies selling furniture is C5, C2,
C3 and C8.
Now, since the number of competitors of C4 and C6 are 4 each the complete list of companies
selling furniture in R5 will be C5, C4, C6, C3 and C8.
The following table can be made now.
Region Companies
R1 C1, C5
R2 C5, C7, C3, C8
R3 C5, C2, C3, C8
R4 None
C5, C4, C6,
R5
C3, C8
Aggregate number of points given to all the regions:
=2+4+4+5
= 15

37. Answer – (C)


Solution:
From the bar – graph we get to know that the number of competitors of C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C7
and C8 is 1, 3, 6, 4, 7, 3 and 6 respectively.
Since C5 is the competitor of each of the other companies, therefore the only competitor of C1 is
C5.
Let’s consider C3: Number of competitors is 6.
We know for sure that C1 is not the competitor of C3; therefore the six competitors of C3 are C2,
C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8.
Similarly C8: Number of competitors is 6 and the competitors of C8 are C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 and
C7.
Therefore competitors of C7 are C5, C3 and C8 and competitors of C2 are C5, C3 and C8.
Since the competitors of C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 and C8 are known and fixed by us, the third
competitor has to be C6.
Therefore the competitors of C6 are C5, C3, C8 and C4.
Now consider C4: Out of the four competitors it has, three are C5, C3 and C8.
Referring to the table made in the previous question, for maximizing the number of regions in
which C1 sells furniture, it is possible that C1 sells furniture in R4 as well.
Hence the number of regions in which C1 sells furniture is at most 2

38. Answer – (D)


Solution:
Let the consumption of ‘High Quality’ and ‘Low Quality’ rice by the residents of the city X in
the year 2002 be ‘A’ and ‘B’ respectively. It is given that A > B
2002200320042005 2006 2007 2008
A 1.2A 0.3A 0.15A 0.18A 0.225A 0.09A
B 0.8B 0.6B 0.84B 0.21B 0.126B 0.189B

In the year 2007, the ratio of the consumption of ‘High Quality’ rice to ‘Low Quality’ rice by the
residents of city ‘X’ was more than that in the year 2002.

39. Answer – (D)


Solution:
Let the consumption of ‘High Quality’ and ‘Low Quality’ rice by the residents of the city X in
the year 2002 be ‘A’ and ‘B’ respectively. It is given that A > B

2002200320042005 2006 2007 2008


A 1.2A 0.3A 0.15A 0.18A 0.225A 0.09A
B 0.8B 0.6B 0.84B 0.21B 0.126B 0.189B

As A and B are positive quantities, it is very clear that the consumption of ‘High Quality’ rice is
maximum in the year 2003 and the consumption of ‘Low Quality’ rice is 2nd highest in 2003 (it
is highest in the year 2005).
Total consumption of rice in the year 2003 is definitely more than that of each of the years 2004,
2006, 2007 and 2008.
We need to compare the data for the years 2003 and 2005.
Let the total consumption of rice in the years 2003 and 2005 be x and y respectively.
We know that x=1.2A+0.8B and
y=0.15A+0.84B
x–y=1.05A–0.04B
Now, As A>B, 1.05A>1.05B>0.04B
⇒ 1.05A>0.04Bor1.05A–0.04B>0
⇒ x – y > 0 or, x > y.
⇒ The total consumption of rice in the year 2003 is the maximum in the period 2003-2008.

B 0.8B 0.6B 0.84B 0.21B 0.126B 0.189B

Total consumption of rice by the residents of city X in 2004:


=0.3A+0.6B
Total consumption of rice by the residents of city X in 2006:
=0.18A+0.21B
⇒ 18A+21B ≥ (1/2(30A+60B))
⇒ 6A≥18B
⇒ A≥3B
Except for the year 2005, in each of the years in the period 2003 – 2008, the consumption ‘High
Quality’ rice is definitely more than that of ‘Low Quality’ rice.
