If the total exports of all companies together in the year 2013 is Rs 300 lakh, then the profit/loss of all companies together in the year 2013 is:
(Assume: Profit = Exports – Imports)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. profit of Rs 35 lakh.
Total imports of goods of 5 companies in 2013 = 30 + 60 + 70 + 15 + 90 = Rs 265 lakhs
Total export = Rs 300 lakhs (Given)
Profit = Total export - Total import
⇒ Profit = 300 - 265 = Rs 35 lakh
