If the production target of all the vehicles together in 2008 is 20% more than the production in 2007. Then what is the percentage deficit in 2008 with respect to the targer, if the number of vehicles produced in 2008 is 520 thousand?

A.	Lies between 4% and 5%	B.	Less than 3%
C.	Greater than 5%	D.	Lies between 3% and 4%
E.	None of these

Answer and Explanation

Answer: Lies between 3% and 4%

Explanation:
Total number of units produced in 2007 is 450 thousands
=> Target in 2008 = 450 x (100 x 20/100)
=> 450 x 1.2 = 540 thousand
=> Deficit = target â€“ actual produced = 540 â€“ 520 = 20
=> Percentage deficit = 20/540 x 100 = 1/27 x 100 < 4% and > 3%

If the production of each of A, B, C and D increases by 10% in 2008 and the overall increase in production of all the vehicles is 15%, then what is the net increase in the production of vehicles of type E?

A.	40,000	B.	35,000
C.	30,000	D.	25,000
E.	Cannot be determined

Answer and Explanation

Answer: 40,000

Explanation:
Total number of all the vehicles produced in 2008 = (100 +15/100) x (total number of all the vehicles produced in 2007) = 1.15 x 450 = 517.5 thousand
Production of vehicles A, B, C and D in 2008 = 275(1.1) = 302.5
For the total no of all the vehicles to be 517.5 thousand, number of vehicles of type E which are produced in 2008 = 517.5 â€“ 302.5 = 215 thousand.
Increase over the previous year = 215 â€“ 175 = 40 thousand.
