The following line graph gives the annual percent profit earned by a Company during the period 1995 - 2000.
Percent Profit Earned by a Company Over the Years.
%Profit = (Income - Expenditure)/Expenditure x 100
If the profit in 1999 was Rs. 4 crores, what was the profit in 2000?
A.
Rs. 4.2 crores
B.
Rs. 6.6 crores
C.
Rs. 6.8 crores
D.
Cannot be determined
Correct answer is D
From the line-graph we obtain information about the percentage profit only. To find the profit in 2000 we must have the data for the income or expenditure in 2000.
Therefore, the profit for 2000 cannot be determined.
