Answer thequestions based on the data given in table 2

Cost and price data for Portland cement manufactured by Paharpur Cement and Bahsin Cement, for four consecutive quarters, are given in table 2:


Sales Revenue = Price Γ— Sales Quantity
Profit = Sales Revenue – Cost
Profit Rate = Profit / Sales Quantity

Question 27

Profit rate of Paharpur Cement is more than the profit rate of Bahsin Cement in:

Let (Costs / Sales Revenue) * 100 = x%

(ProfitΒ / Sales Revenue) * 100 = (100-x) %Β 

(ProfitΒ / Sales Revenue) = (100-x) /100 %Β 

(ProfitΒ / Price * Sales Quantity)Β =(100-x) /100Β %Β 

Profit / Sales Quantity =[(100-x) /100]* PriceΒ Β 

On tabulating the Profit rate of both the factories , we getΒ 

Clearly C is the correct answer
