Percentage Distribution of Total Expenditure of a Company
What is the ratio of the total expenditure on infrastructure and transport to the total expenditure on taxes and interest on loans?
5:4
8:7
9:7
13:11
Correct answer is D
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)/(27.5x/100) ) = 13/11
