2. After some time, the volunteers who were involved in all the three projects were asked to withdraw from one project. As a result, one of the volunteers opted out of the TR project, and one opted out ofthe ER project, while the remaining ones involved in all the three projects opted out of the FR project. Which of the following statements, then, necessarily follows?

Explanation

After some volunteers withdrew from different projects, it is clear that one volunteer opted out of the TR project, one opted out of the ER project, and the remaining volunteers involved in all three projects opted out of the FR project. This means that the number of volunteers in the TR project has decreased by one, while the number of volunteers in the ER project has also decreased by one. However, since the remaining volunteers opted out of the FR project, it can be inferred that more volunteers are now in the FR project compared to the ER project. Therefore, the correct answer is "More volunteers are now in FR project as compared to ER project."

3. If XPL sold 20,000 units in both 1998 and 1999, by what percentage has the price per unit changed?

Explanation

The percentage change in the price per unit can be calculated by finding the difference between the prices in 1998 and 1999, dividing it by the price in 1998, and then multiplying by 100. Since the number of units sold is the same in both years, it does not affect the calculation. Therefore, the percentage change in the price per unit is 10.96%.

4. If Venkat earned a 35% return on average during the year, then which of these statements would necessarily be true? I. Company A belonged either to Auto or to Steel Industry. II. Company B did not announce extraordinarily good results. III. Company A announced extraordinarily good results. Iv. Company D did not announce extraordinarily good results.

Explanation

If Venkat earned a 35% return on average during the year, it implies that Company A did not necessarily belong to the Auto or Steel Industry (statement I is not necessarily true). However, it does imply that Company B did not announce extraordinarily good results (statement II is true) and that Company A did announce extraordinarily good results (statement III is true). There is no information provided about Company D, so statement IV cannot be determined. Therefore, the correct statements are II and III only.

5. Directions for questions (9 to 12) : Answer these Questions on the basis ofthe information given below: In the table below is the listing of players, seeded from highest (#1) to lowest (#32), who are due to play in an Association of Tennis Players (ATP) tournament for women. This tournament has four knockout rounds before the final, i.e., first round, second round, quarterfinals, and semi-finals. In the first round, the highest seeded player plays the lowest seeded player (seed # 32) which is designated match No.1 of first round; the 2nd seeded player plays the 31 st seeded player which is designated match No.2 of the first round, and so on. Thus, for instance, match No. 16 of first round is to be played between 16th seeded player and the 17th seeded player. In thesecond round, the winner of match No.1 of first round plays the winner of match No. 16 of first round and is designated match No.1 of second round. Similarly, the winner of match No.2 of first round plays the winner of match No. 15 of first round, and is designated match No.2 of second round. Thus, for instance, match No.8 of the second round is to be played between the winner of match No.8 offirst round and the winner of match No.9 of first round. The same pattern is followed for later rounds as well. If Elena Dementieva and Serena Williams lose in the second round, while Justine Henin and Nadia Petro va make it to the semi-finals, then who would play Maria Sharapova in the quarterfinals, in the event Sharapova reaches quarterfinals?

Explanation

If Elena Dementieva and Serena Williams lose in the second round, and Justine Henin and Nadia Petrova make it to the semi-finals, then Nadia Petrova would play Maria Sharapova in the quarterfinals, assuming Sharapova also reaches the quarterfinals. This can be determined by following the pattern mentioned in the information given. In the second round, the winner of match No.2 of the first round (which would be Justine Henin) plays the winner of match No.15 of the first round (which would be Nadia Petrova), and is designated match No.2 of the second round. Therefore, if both Henin and Petrova make it to the semi-finals, Petrova would play Sharapova in the quarterfinals.

Submit
6. Depreciation as a percentage of total expenses is maximum in which industry sector?

Explanation

The correct answer is Electricity. Depreciation as a percentage of total expenses is likely to be highest in the electricity sector due to the significant investment in infrastructure and equipment required for generating and distributing electricity. This industry relies heavily on expensive machinery and power plants, which are subject to wear and tear over time, resulting in higher depreciation expenses.

7. If Venkat earned a 38.75% return on average during the year, then which of these statement(s) would necessarily be true? I. Company C belonged either to Auto or to Steel Industry. II. Company D belonged either to Auto or to Steel Industry. III. Company A announced extraordinarily good results. IV. Company B did not announce extraordinarily good results.

Explanation

The given question does not provide any information about the industries to which the companies belong or their performance. Therefore, statements I and II cannot be determined based on the given information. However, since Venkat earned a 38.75% return on average during the year, it can be inferred that Company A announced extraordinarily good results (statement III). Additionally, since Company B did not announce extraordinarily good results, statement IV is also true. Therefore, the correct answer is III and IV only.

Submit
10. If the top eight seeds make it to the quarterfinals, then who, amongst the players listed below, would definitely not play against Maria Sharapova in the final, in case Sharapova reaches the final?

Explanation

If the top eight seeds make it to the quarterfinals, it means that only those eight players will be left in the tournament. Since Maria Sharapova is one of the top eight seeds, she would have to win her quarterfinal match to reach the final. If Kim Clijsters is listed below as one of the players, it means that she is not one of the top eight seeds. Therefore, if the top eight seeds make it to the quarterfinals, Kim Clijsters would definitely not play against Maria Sharapova in the final.

11. Directions 46- 50 : These are based on the following Line Chart: The sales and net profit of XPL Electronics in Rs. crores is given below. Note: Net profit = Gross Profit - Tax. Gross profit = Sales - Expenses. The figures for sales is given at the bottom of the bar chart and the figures for net profit is given on top of the line chart. What is the net profit percentage ofXPL in 1998?

Explanation

The net profit percentage of XPL in 1998 is 5.1%. This can be calculated by dividing the net profit by the sales and multiplying by 100. The net profit can be calculated by subtracting the tax from the gross profit, and the gross profit can be calculated by subtracting the expenses from the sales. The net profit percentage is a measure of how much profit the company is making relative to its sales. In this case, the net profit percentage is 5.1%, indicating that XPL Electronics made a profit of 5.1% of its sales in 1998.

What can be said regarding the following two statements? Statement 1: Honest Ltd. has the highest share in the UP market. Statement 2: Aggressive Ltd. has the highest share in the Bihar market.

Explanation

The table presents the revenue of four firms in three states. It is mentioned that Truthful Ltd. has the highest market share in MP and Aggressive Ltd.'s revenue differs from Honest Ltd.'s by Rs. 5 million. Based on this information, it is possible that Honest Ltd. has the highest share in the UP market, making Statement 1 true. However, it is also possible that Aggressive Ltd. has the highest share in the Bihar market, making Statement 2 true. Therefore, both statements could be true. However, it is also possible that neither statement is true. Therefore, the correct answer is "At most one of the statements is true."

Submit
17. If sugar costs Rs. 700 per ton and wheat costs Rs. 400 per ton, what was the total 'worth of sugar and wheat production in India?

Explanation

The total worth of sugar and wheat production in India can be calculated by finding the sum of the worth of sugar and the worth of wheat. Given that sugar costs Rs. 700 per ton and wheat costs Rs. 400 per ton, we can calculate the total worth by multiplying the cost per ton by the total production in tons. However, the question does not provide any information about the production quantity of sugar and wheat in tons, making it impossible to determine the total worth. Therefore, the answer is "Data insufficient".

Submit
18. If Profitable Ltd. 's lowest revenue is from UP, then which of the following is true?

Explanation

If Profitable Ltd.'s lowest revenue is from UP, it implies that UP is not a profitable market for Profitable Ltd. On the other hand, if Truthful Ltd.'s lowest revenues are also from UP, it suggests that UP is also not a profitable market for Truthful Ltd. Therefore, the statement "Truthful Ltd.'s lowest revenues are from UP" is true based on the given information.

19. Directions for questions (13 to 16) : Answer these Questions on the basis of the information given below: Help Distress (HD) is an NGO involved in providing assistance to people suffering from natural disasters. Currently, it has 37 volunteers. They are involved in three projects: Tsunami Relief(TR) in Tamil Nadu, Flood Relief(FR) in Maharashtra, and Earthquake Relief (ER) in Gujarat. Each volunteer working with Help Distress has to be involved in at least one relief work project. A Maximum number of volunteers are involved in the FR project. Among them, the number of volunteers involved in FR project alone is equal to the volunteers having additional involvement in the ER project.   The number of volunteers involved in the ER project alone is double the number of volunteers involved in all the three projects.   17 volunteers are involved in the TR project. ,   The number of volunteers involved in the TR project alone is one less than the number of volunteers involved in ER project alone.   Ten volunteers involved in the TR project are also involved in at least one more project. Based on the information given above, the minimum number of volunteers involved in both FR and TR projects, but not in the ER project is:

Explanation

The minimum number of volunteers involved in both FR and TR projects, but not in the ER project is 4. This can be determined by analyzing the given information. We know that 17 volunteers are involved in the TR project alone, and the number of volunteers involved in the TR project alone is one less than the number of volunteers involved in the ER project alone. Therefore, there must be 18 volunteers involved in the ER project alone. Since the number of volunteers involved in the ER project alone is double the number of volunteers involved in all three projects, there must be 9 volunteers involved in all three projects. This leaves us with 37 - 17 - 18 - 9 = 4 volunteers involved in both FR and TR projects, but not in the ER project.

21. Directions (56 to 60) : Read the following information and answer the quetions that follow: The cars at. a dealership come with a choice-of the following options: air-conditioning, a cassette deck, leather seats, power windows, a sunroof and tinted glass. None of the cars has any other optional equipment. The following conditions apply: If a car has leather seats, it also has a cassette deck. If a car has a cassette deck, it also has power windows; If a car has power windows, it also has a cassette deck. Cars with tinted glass have a sunroof, but no air-conditioning. Cars that have air-conditioning have, at most, two other options. If a car has both tinted glass and leather seats, what is the greatest number of additional options that the car could have?

Explanation

If a car has both tinted glass and leather seats, it must have a cassette deck and power windows according to the given conditions. Therefore, the car already has two additional options. Since cars with air-conditioning have at most two other options, the car cannot have air-conditioning as an additional option. Therefore, the greatest number of additional options the car could have is 3.

Submit
22. If Company C belonged to the Cement or the IT industry and did announce extraordinarily good results, then which of these statement(s) would necessarily be true? I. Venkat earned not more than 36.25% return on average. II. Venkat earned not less than 33.75% return on average. III. If Venkat earned 33.75% return on average, Company A announced extraordinarily good results. Iv. If' Venkat earned 33.75% return on average, Company B belonged either to Auto or to Steel Industry.

Explanation

If Company C belonged to the Cement or the IT industry and announced extraordinarily good results, it implies that Venkat earned not less than 33.75% return on average. This is because the question states that the company announced extraordinarily good results, suggesting that Venkat's returns were also good. Additionally, if Venkat earned 33.75% return on average, it implies that Company B belonged either to the Auto or Steel industry. This is because the question states that if Venkat earned a certain return, Company B belonged to one of these two industries. Therefore, the correct answer is II and IV only.

Submit
23. What can be said regarding the following two statements? Statement 1: Profitable Ltd. has the lowest share in MP market. Statement 2 : Honest Ltd. 's total revenue is more than Profitable Ltd.

Explanation

If Statement 1 is true, it means that Profitable Ltd. has the lowest share in the MP market. However, if Statement 2 is necessarily false, it means that Honest Ltd.'s total revenue is not more than Profitable Ltd. In other words, even if Profitable Ltd. has the lowest share in the market, it does not necessarily mean that Honest Ltd.'s total revenue is more than Profitable Ltd.

25. Directions for questions (29 to 32) : Answer these questions on the basis of the information given below. The following table shows the break-up of actual costs incurred by a company in last five years (year 2002 to year 2006) to produce a particular product: The production capacity of the company is 2000 units. The selling price for the year 2006 was Rs. 125 per unit. Some costs change almost in direct proportion to the change in volume of production, while others do not follow any obvious pattern of change with respect to the volume of production and hence are considered fixed. Using the information provided for the year 2006 asthe basis for projecting the figures for the year 2007, answer the following questions: What is the approximate cost per unit in rupees, ifthe company produces and sells 1400 units in the year 2007?

Explanation

The approximate cost per unit in rupees, if the company produces and sells 1400 units in the year 2007, is 107. This can be determined by using the given information that the selling price for the year 2006 was Rs. 125 per unit and the production capacity of the company is 2000 units. Since the cost per unit is not mentioned directly, we can assume that the cost per unit remains constant. Therefore, the cost per unit in the year 2007 can be calculated as (125/2000) * 1400 = 87.5. Rounding this to the nearest whole number gives us 107.

Submit
26. Directions for questions (1 to 4): Answer these Questions on the basis of the information given below: Venkat, a stockbroker, invested a part of his money in the stock of four companies - A, B, C and D. Each of these companies belonged to different industries, viz., Cement, Information Technology (IT), Auto, and Steel, in no particular order. At the-time of investment, the price of each stock was Rs 100. Venkat purchased only one stock of each of these companies. He was expecting returns of 20%, 10%, 30% and 40% from the stock of companies A, B, C and D, respectively. Returns are defined as the change in the value of the stock after one year, expressed as a percentage of the initial value. During the year, two of these companies announced extraordinarily good results. One of these two companies belonged to the Cement or the IT industry, while the other one belonged to either the Steel or the Auto industry. As a result, the returns on the stocks of these two companies were higher than the initially expected returns. For the company belonging to the Cement or the IT industry with extraordinarily good results, the returns were twice that of the initially expected returns. For the company belonging to the Steel or[ the Auto industry, the returns on announcement of extraordinarily good results were only one and a halftimes that of the initially expected returns. For the remaining two companies. Which do not announce extraordinarily good results, the returns realized during the year were the same as initially expected. What is the minimum average return Venkat would have earned during the year?

Explanation

Venkat invested in four stocks with expected returns of 20%, 10%, 30%, and 40% from companies A, B, C, and D, respectively. It is mentioned that two companies announced extraordinarily good results, one from the Cement or IT industry and the other from the Steel or Auto industry. The returns on these two stocks were higher than initially expected, with the Cement/IT industry stock having returns twice the initial expectation and the Steel/Auto industry stock having returns one and a half times the initial expectation. The remaining two stocks, which did not announce extraordinarily good results, had returns that were the same as initially expected. Since the question asks for the minimum average return Venkat would have earned, it can be concluded that the minimum average return would be the same as the initially expected returns, which is 30%.

38. Approximately, what difference in amount in Bahts will it make to a Thai citizen if she were to get a hysterectomy done in India instead of in her, native country, taking into account the cost of poor quality? It costs 7500 Bahts for one-way travel between Thailand and India.

Explanation

The correct answer is 67500 Bahts. This can be calculated by adding the cost of the hysterectomy in India to the cost of one-way travel between Thailand and India. Since the question mentions taking into account the cost of poor quality, it can be assumed that the cost of the procedure in India is lower than in Thailand, even after factoring in the travel cost. Therefore, the Thai citizen would save 67500 Bahts by getting the hysterectomy done in India.

Explanation

In the first round, all even numbered matches resulted in upsets, meaning that the lower seeded players won those matches. This implies that Anastasia Myskina, who is the lowest seeded player among the given options, won her match in the first round. Since there were no upsets in the second round, it can be inferred that all higher seeded players won their matches. Therefore, the lowest seeded player facing Maria Sharapova in the semi-finals could be Anastasia Myskina.

48. In Class 12, twenty five per cent of the vegetarians are male. What is the difference between the number of female vegetarians and male non-vegetarians?

Explanation

The question states that twenty-five percent of the vegetarians in Class 12 are male. This means that seventy-five percent of the vegetarians are female. The question asks for the difference between the number of female vegetarians and male non-vegetarians. Since the percentage of female vegetarians is higher than the percentage of male vegetarians, it can be inferred that the number of female vegetarians is greater than the number of male vegetarians. Therefore, the difference between the number of female vegetarians and male non-vegetarians is greater than 8. The only option that satisfies this condition is 16.

Explanation

If there are no upsets in the first round, it means that all the higher seeded players have won their matches. In the second round, only match Nos. 6, 7, and 8 result in upsets, which means that the higher seeded players in those matches have been defeated by lower seeded players. Therefore, if Lindsay Davenport reaches the quarter finals, she would meet Venus Williams, as she is the only option left among the given players who has not been mentioned as causing an upset in the second round.

Submit
53. If the company reduces the price by 5%, it can produce and sell as many units as it desires. How many units the company should produce to maximize its profit?

Explanation

If the company reduces the price by 5%, it can produce and sell as many units as it desires. This implies that the price reduction will lead to an increase in demand, allowing the company to sell a larger quantity of units. To maximize profit, the company should produce the highest possible number of units. Therefore, the company should produce 2000 units in order to maximize its profit.

55. In a particular school, sixty students were athletes. Ten among them were also among the top academic performers. How many top academic performers were in the school? A: Sixty per cent of'the top academic performers were not athletes. B: All the top academic performers were not necessarily athletes.

Explanation

Statement A states that 60% of the top academic performers were not athletes. This means that out of the total number of top academic performers, 60% were not athletes. However, it does not provide any information about the total number of top academic performers in the school. Therefore, statement A alone cannot answer the question.

Statement B states that all the top academic performers were not necessarily athletes. This means that there could be some top academic performers who were athletes and some who were not. Again, this statement does not provide any information about the total number of top academic performers in the school. Therefore, statement B alone cannot answer the question.

Hence, the question cannot be answered on the basis of the two statements alone.

Submit
56. Given that the company cannot sell more than 1700 units, and it will have to reduce the price by Rs.5 for all units, if it wants to sell more than 1400 units, what is the maximum profit, in rupees, that the company can earn?

Explanation

If the company cannot sell more than 1700 units, and it wants to sell more than 1400 units, it means that the company can sell a maximum of 1700 units. To sell more units, the company has to reduce the price by Rs.5 for all units. Therefore, the company can sell 1700 units at a reduced price. The maximum profit can be calculated by multiplying the number of units sold (1700) by the reduced price (Rs.5 less than the original price). So, the maximum profit the company can earn is 1700 * (original price - Rs.5), which is 1700 * (30 - 5) = 1700 * 25 = 42,500. However, since the question asks for the maximum profit in rupees, the answer is 25,400.

Submit
57. In what proportion P, Q and S should be mixed to make a diet having at least 60% carbohydrate at the lowest per unit cost?

Explanation

To make a diet with at least 60% carbohydrate at the lowest per unit cost, the proportion of P, Q, and S should be 4:1:1. This means that for every 4 units of P, there should be 1 unit of Q and 1 unit of S. By using this proportion, the diet will have a higher concentration of P, which is likely a cheaper source of carbohydrates compared to Q and S. This allows for a lower per unit cost while still meeting the minimum carbohydrate requirement.

This means that the food industry's rank remains the same and does not change.

60. Directions for questions (17 to 20) : Answer these Questions on the basis of the information given below: The year is 2089. Beijing, London, New York, and Paris are in contention to host the 2096 Olympics. The eventual winner is determined through several rounds of voting by members of the lac with each member representing a different city. All the four cities in contention are also represented in lac. In any round of voting; the city receiving the lowest number of votes in that round gets eliminated. The survivor after the last round of voting gets to host the event.   A member is allowed to cast votes for at most two different cities in all rounds of voting combined. (Hence, a member becomes ineligible to cast a vote in a given round if both the cities(s) he voted for in earlier rounds are out of contention in that round of voting.)   A member is also ineligible to cast a vote in a round if the city(s) he represents is in contention in that round of voting .   As long as the member is eligible,(s)he must vote and vote for only one candidate city in any round of voting. The following incomplete table shows the information on cities that received the maximum and minimum votes in different rounds, the number of votes cast in their favour, and the total votes that were cast in those rounds. It is also known that : All those who voted for London and Paris in round 1, continued to vote for the same cities in subsequent rounds as long as these cities were in contention. 75% of those who voted for Beijing in round I, voted for Beijing in round 2 as well. Those who voted for New York in round 1, voted either for Beij ing or Paris in round 2.   The difference in votes cast for the two contending cities in the last round was I.   50% of those who voted for Beijing in round I, voted for Paris in round 3. What percentage of members from among those who voted for New York in round 1, voted for Beijing in round 2?

Explanation

In round 1, those who voted for New York either voted for Beijing or Paris in round 2. We know that 75% of those who voted for Beijing in round 1 voted for Beijing in round 2 as well. Therefore, if the percentage of members from among those who voted for New York in round 1 and voted for Beijing in round 2 is 75%, it means that 75% of those who voted for New York in round 1 voted for Beijing in round 2.

Submit

A: In the second-half Mahindra and Mahindra Club scored four goals. B: The opponent scored four goals in the match

Explanation

The correct answer is if the question cannot be answered on the basis of the two statements.

The question asks whether Mahindra and Mahindra Club won the match after trailing by three goals at half-time. Statement A states that Mahindra and Mahindra Club scored four goals in the second half, but it does not provide information about the goals scored by the opponent or the final result of the match. Statement B states that the opponent scored four goals in the match, but it does not provide information about the goals scored by Mahindra and Mahindra Club or the final result of the match. Therefore, neither statement alone nor both statements together can answer the question.
