Question 126

If in the year 2004 the expenditures incurred by Company A and B were the same what was the ratio of the income of Company A to that company B in that year ?

Solution

Percentage profit by company A = 35%

Percentage profit by company B = 40%

Let expenditure be x

(Income of A - x)/x = 0.35

Income of A = 1.35x

(Income of B - x)/x = 0.4

Income of B = 1.4x

Income of A:Income of B = 1.35:1.4 = 27:28
