Question : Direction: The pie chart given below shows the percentage distribution of annual expenditure on various items of a company. The annual expenditure of the company is Rs. 72 crore.
The total amount spent on raw materials is 50% of the total amount spent on interest. If the ratio of the amount of expenditure on rent and the raw materials is 1 : 2 respectively, then what will be the amount spent on rent annually?
Option 1: Rs. 2,80,00,000
Option 2: Rs. 3,60,00,000
Option 3: Rs. 4,00,00,000
Option 4: Rs. 3,20,00,000
Correct Answer: Rs. 3,60,00,000
Solution :
Amount spent on interest = $\frac{20}{100}$ × 72,00,00,000 = Rs. 144000000
Amount spent on raw material = 50% of interest
= $\frac{50}{100}$ × 14,40,00,000
= Rs. 7,20,00,000
The ratio of the amount of expenditure on rent and raw materials is 1 : 2.
Thus, 2 units = Rs. 7,20,00,000
⇒ 1 unit = Rs. 3,60,00,000
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 3,60,00,000.
