1).Suppose x units are produced each year
In year 2006, Total revenue = 3000 then, 15x = 3000 or x=200
Profit = 1000
Cost price = 3000 – 1000 = 2000
Cost per unit = 2000 / 200 = Rs. 10
In year 2007, 25x = 3000 or x = 120
Cost per unit = 1500 / 120 = Rs. 12.5
In year 2008, 25x = 4000 or x = 160
Cost per unit = 2000 / 160 = Rs. 12.5
In year 2010, 30x = 3000 or x = 100
Cost per unit = 1500 / 100 = Rs. 15
In year 2007, 15x = 3000 or x = 200
Cost per unit = 500 / 120 = Rs. 2.5
Therefore in 2010 cost price per unit is the maximum.
Answer: d)
2).Total units in 2006 = Revenue / Selling price per unit = 3000 / 15 = 200
In 2007 = 3000 / 25 = 120
In 2008 = 4000 / 25 = 160
In 2009 = 2500 / 20 = 125
In 2010 = 3000 / 30 = 100
Average of units sold = 200 + 120 + 160 + 125 + 100 / 5 = 705 / 5 = 141.
Answer: e)
Total cost = (old revenue - price)
75% of 3500 = 2625
3500-1500=2000
75% of 3000 = 2250
3000-1000=2000
75% of 3000 = 2250
3000-1500=1500
75% of 4000 = 3000
4000-2000=2000
125%of2000=2500
125%of1500=1875
125%of1500=1875
125%of500=625
 Answer: c)
4).Total decrease in Revenue = 25% of (3500 + 3000 + 3000 + 4000) = 3375
Total increase in cost = 25% of (2000 + 1500 + 1500 + 500) = 1375
Decrease in cumulative profit = Total decrease in revenue + Total increase in cost = 3375 + 1375 = Rs.4750.
Answer: e)
5).Cost = Revenue – Profit
Cost in 2005 = 3500 – 1500 = 2000
2006 = 3000 – 1000 = 2000
2007 = 3000 – 1500 = 1500
2008 = 4000 – 2000 = 2000
2009 = 2500 – 500 = 2000
2010 = 3000 – 1500 = 1500
2011 = 2500 – 1000 = 1500
2012 = 3000 – 2500 = 500
Average = 2000 + 2000 + 1500 + 2000 + 2000 + 1500 + 1500 + 500 / 8 = 13000 / 8 = Rs. 1625.
Answer: a)
6).From graph (iii)
(Price of Bajaj/Price of Toyota) = (2/3); (Price of Maruti/Price of Bajaj) = (5/8); (Price of Honda/Price of Maruthi) = 2; (Price of M & M / Price of Honda) = 1.1
If price of Bajaj car is 8x, then prices of Toyota, Maruti, Honda and M&M cars are 12x, 5x, 10x and 11x respectively.
From graph (i),
Percentage shares of Honda and Toyota are 12.5% each while those of Bajaj, M&M and Maruti are 25% each.
Sales of M&M cars (in value) in 2004 = 11x × (25/100) × 50000
Total sales (in value) = (8x + 11x + 5x) × (25/100) × 50000 + (12x + 10x) × (12.5/100) ×50000
= (24x + 11x) × (25/100) ×50000 = 35x× (25/100) ×50000
Percentage share of sales of M&M cars = 100 ≈ 32%.
Answer: a)
7).(Sales of Toyota in November 2003 / Sales of Toyota in March 2004) = [(20/100) × 55] / [(12.5/100) ×50] = 220/125 = 44/25.
Answer: c)
8).If a Honda car costs Rs 2.5 lakhs, then a Bajaj car will cost  0.625 
Sales of Bajaj cars in March 2004 = (25/100) ×50000×2 = 25000 lakhs.
Answer: c)
9).Ratio of price of all the given companies is
Toyoto : Bajaj : Maruti : Honda : M & M
    8 : 5
         1 : 2
              10 : 11
= (3 × 8×1×10) : (2×8×1×10) : (2×5×1×10) : (2×5×2×10) : (2×5×2×11)
= 240 : 160 : 100 : 200 : 220 = 12 : 8 : 5 : 10 : 11
Volumes of production of Toyota, Bajaj, Maruti, Honda and M&M in March 2004 are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 2 : 1 : 2
Let x be present in the ratio of the price of each of the cars.
Average price in March 2004 = (12x×1+8x×2+5x×2+10x×1+11x×2) / (1+2+2+1+2) = 70x/8 = 8.75x
Therefore the prices of Toyota, Honda and M&M are greater than the average price of all cars in March 2004.
Answer: c)
10).From solution (11) : Ratio of market prices is Bajaj : M&M = 8x : 11x
11x – 8x = 3x = 1,08,000
x = 36,000
Now market price of Maruti = 5x = 180,000
Market price of Honda = 10x = 3,60,000
required answer = 50%.
Quicker Approach:
Ratio of price of Honda to Maruti = 2 : 1
Required ratio = (2-1)/2 × 100 = 50%
Note: There is no need of the cost of Bajaj car in March 2004.
Answer: b)
