4 questions in the pattern of XAT. Each question is marked with the exams it suits. Answer it, then open the step-by-step solution.
| Product | 2023 units | 2024 units | 2025 units | 2025 price (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha | 40 | 46 | 52 | 250 |
| Beta | 25 | 30 | 33 | 400 |
| Gamma | 60 | 54 | 57 | 120 |
| Delta | 15 | 21 | 28 | 600 |
Questions 1–4 are based on this data.
Which product earned the second-highest revenue in 2025?
2025 revenue (₹ thousand): Alpha 52 × 250 = 13,000; Beta 33 × 400 = 13,200; Gamma 57 × 120 = 6,840; Delta 28 × 600 = 16,800.
Delta is first and Beta (13,200) is second, just ahead of Alpha (13,000).
By what percentage did the total number of units sold rise from 2023 to 2024?
Total 2023 = 40 + 25 + 60 + 15 = 140 thousand; 2024 = 46 + 30 + 54 + 21 = 151 thousand.
Rise = 11/140 ≈ 7.9%.
Suppose Gamma's 2025 price had been 25% higher and its 2025 units had fallen from the 2025 figure by the same percentage as they fell from 2023 to 2024. By what percentage would Gamma's 2025 revenue have changed?
Units fell from 60 to 54 in 2024, a 10% fall. New revenue factor = 1.25 × 0.90 = 1.125.
So revenue rises by 12.5%.
Which is closest to the compound annual growth rate of Delta's units from 2023 to 2025?
Growth over two years = 28/15 ≈ 1.867. Annual factor = √1.867 ≈ 1.366.
So about 37% a year (87% is the total two-year growth, not the annual rate).
