The pie charts below show the break-up of the total revenue and total sales volume for a company, for the year ended 2003.
(Total revenue= Rs. 11,39,200 million and total sales volume= 653610 unit. Based on the data provided in both the figures, answer the question that follow)
Question 1: What is the net revenue per Esteem sold, approximately?
(a) Rs. 1481000
(b) Rs. 1348000
(c) Rs. 1532000
(d) Rs. 1326000
Question 2: The highest net revenue per vehicle comes from
(a) M 800
(b) Omni
(c) Esteem
(d) Zen
Question 3: If volume of sales of Omni was increased by 25% and this sales increase ‘was’ entirely at the cost of M 800, then what is the percentage decrease in M 800 volume sales?
(a) 1.3%
(b) 2.4%
(c) 4.3%
(d) 4.74%
Question 4: If the net revenue from Alto was to be excluded, what percent of the revenue would Zen form?
(a) 3.27%
(b) 3.17%
(c) 3.37%
(d) 3.47%
Question 5: Which of the following is true?
(i) The sum of the revenue generated by Zen and Omni is lesser than twice that of Alto.
(ii) If the revenue of Esteem and Alto be interchanged, Alto’s revenue per unit would be more than that for Zen.
(iii) The revenue per unit of Esteem is greater than that for M 800.
(a) (i) only
(b) (ii) only
(c) (iii) only
(d) Both (ii) and (iii)
Answers and Explanations
Answer 1: (a)
Answer 2: (b)
The ratio of percentage of revenue to volume
For M 800 = 48/58
For Omni = 21/11
For Esteem = 17/20
For Zen= 3/3=1
The ratio for Omni is maximum. Hence highest net revenue per vehicle comes from Omni.
Thus the correct option is (b)
Answer 3: (d)
The sale of Omni = 11% of 653610 = 71897
The sale of M 800 = 58% of 653610 = 379094
The new sale of Omni = 71897 × 1.25 = 89871
The increase in the sale of Omni = 89871 – 71897 = 17974 which is the decrease in the sale of M 800
Hence the required percentage decrease = (17974/379094)X100 = 4.74%
Alternate Solution:
Let the total volume be 100.
Volume of Omni = 11 and volume of M 800 = 58.
Now the new volume of Omni is 11× 1.25 = 13.75.
Thus increase = 2.75.
Thus the decrease of M 800 =2.75/58 x 100 = 4.74%
Correct option is (d)
Answer 4: (c)
Let the total revenue be Rs. 100.
The revenue from Alto = Rs 11 and revenue from Zen = Rs 3
Now if the net revenue from Alto is excluded then the net revenue = 100 – 11 = Rs 89
The required percentage =3/89 x 100 = 3.37%
The correct option is (c)
Answer 5: (d)
From the pie chart 21+3 > 2 × 11 , thus the sum of Zen and Omni is more than twice of Alto. Therefore, first statement is incorrect.
Now in the second statement, if the revenue of Esteem and Alto be interchanged, then revenue per unit of Alto = 17/8 and that of Zen is 3/3= = 1. So the revenue of Alto is more than that of Zen. Hence statement 2 is true.
In statement 3, the revenue per unit of Esteem = 17/20 = 0.85 and that of M 800 is 48/58 = 0.83.
Hence Statement 3 is also true.
Option (d) is correct.
