Percentage Distribution of Total Expenditure of a Company

Q1:

What is the ratio of the total expenditure on infrastructure and transport to the total expenditure on taxes and interest on loans?

A 5:4

B 8:7

C 9:7

D 13:11

ANS:D - 13:11

Let the total amount of expenditures be Rs. x. Then, the total expenditure on infrastruture and transport     = Rs. [(20 + 12.5)% of x]     = Rs. [32.5% of x]

    = Rs. ( 32.5x )
100
and total expenditure on taxes and interest on loans     = Rs. [(10 + 17.5)% of x]     = Rs. [27.5% of x]
    = Rs. ( 27.5x )
100
Therefore Required ratio = ( 32.5x/100 ) = 13 .
27.5x/100 11
