Download Solution PDFGiven:
Company's profit in 2001-02 = Rs. 650 lakhs
Company's profit in 2002-03 = Rs. 730 lakhs
Company's profit in 2003-04 = Rs. 520 lakhs
Company's profit in 2004-05 = Rs. 680 lakhs
Company's profit in 2005-06 = Rs. 740 lakhs
Company's profit in 2006-07 =Rs. 490 lakhs
Company's profit in 2007-08 = Rs. 660 lakhs
Company's profit in 2008-09 = Rs. 810 lakhs
Concept used:
Average profit = \(Sum \: of \: profits \over No. \:of \: years\)
Calculation:
Average profit = \(650+730+520 +680 +740+490+660+810 \over 8\)
⇒ \(5280 \over 8 \)
⇒ 660
Thus, number of years in which the company's profit is above the average profit = 4
and number of years in which the company's profit is below the average profit = 3
Ratio = 4 : 3
∴ The ratio of the number of years in which the company's profit is above the average profit, to those in which the profit is below the average is 4 : 3.
