Question 182

If the investments of the Company A in 2007 and 2008 were equal, what is the difference between profit earned in two years if the income in 2008 was Rs.24 lakhs?

Solution

Let the investment of company A in 07 and 08 be 100 x.

then, profit in 07 = 45 x

profit in 08 = 60 x

Income in 08 = 24 lacs = 60 x + 100 x (Since, income = profit + investment)

=> x = 15,000

Difference in profit = 60 x - 45 x = 15 x = 15 * 15,000 = 2.25 lakhs
