Correct Answer: Rs. 83 lakhs
Solution :
Given:
Average revenue of 7 consecutive years = Rs. 75 lakhs
Average revenue of first 4 years = Rs. 70 lakhs
Average revenue of last 4 years = Rs. 82 lakhs
Total revenue of 7 years = Average revenue × Number of years = 75 × 7
= Rs. 525 lakhs
Total revenue of first 4 years = Average revenue × Number of years.
= 70 × 4 = Rs. 280 lakhs
Total revenue of the last year = Average revenue × Number of years = 82 × 4
= Rs. 328 lakhs
Thus, revenue of the 4th year = Rs. 280 + Rs 328 – Rs.525 = Rs. 83 lakhs
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 83 lakhs.
