Instructions

Directions for the following five questions: Answer the questions based on the two graphs shown below.

Figure I (the chart on the left) shows the amount of work distribution, in man-hours, for a software company between offshore and onsite activities.

Figure 2 (the chart on the right) shows the estimated and actual work effort involved in the different offshore activities in the same company during the same period.

[Note: Onsite refers to work performed at the customerā€™s premise and offshore refers to work performed at the developerā€™s premise.]

Directions for the following three questions: Answer the questions based on the pipeline diagram below.

The following sketch shows the pipelines carrying material from one location to another. Each location has a demand for material. The demand at Vaishali is 400, at Jyotishmati is 400, at Panchal is 700, and at Vidisha is 200. Each arrow indicates the direction of material flow through the pipeline. The flow from Vaishali to Jyotishmati is 300. The quantity of material flow is such that the demands at all these locations are exactly met. The capacity of each pipeline is 1,000.

Directions for the following three questions: Answer these questions based on the data given below:

There are six companies, 1 through 6. All of these companies use six operations, A through F. The

following graph shows the distribution of efforts put in by each company in these six operations.

The Y axis represents the % distribution of effort and the X axis represents the company

Question 68

Suppose effort allocation is inter-changed between operations B and C, then C and D, and then D and E. If companies are then ranked in ascending order of effort in E, what will be the rank of company 3?

Video Solution
Question 69

A new technology is introduced in company 4 such that the total effort for operations B through F get evenly distributed among these. What is the change in the percentage of effort in operation E?

Video Solution
Question 70

Suppose the companies find that they can remove operations B, C and D and redistribute the effort released equally among the remaining operations. Then which operation will show the maximum share across all companies and all operations?
