From the table,
The total yearly expense is the sum of all these expenses = 12 + 8 + 6 + 2 + 4 = 32 lakhs
The combined expenditure on raw materials and taxes = 12 + 4 = 16 lakhs
The expenditure on raw materials and taxes as a percentage of the total expenses = $\frac{16}{32}$ × 100 = 50%
Hence, the correct answer is 50 percent.
