Based on the following information.

Five years ago Maxam Glass Co. had estimated its staff requirements in the five levels in their organization as: Level - 1: 55; Level - 2: 65; Level - 3: 225 ; Level - 4: 255 & Level - 5: 300. Over the years the company had recruited people based on ad-hoc requirements, in the process also selecting ex-defence service men and ex -policemen. The following graph shows actual staff strength at various levels as on date.

Question 64

If the company decides to abolish all vacant posts at all levels, which level would incur the highest reduction in percentage terms ?

Solution

From the bar graph we can see that actual staff strength is 130 whereas the staff requirements is 255. So, the company has to abolish 125 vacant seats. we can see that the company has to abolish nearly 50 percent of the total strength which is greater than any other remaining levels. Hence, option D is the correct answer.
