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.
