Explanation
The correct answer is "nearly 30%". This can be determined by comparing the sizes of the pie slices representing the Rupee loans for 1939 and 1946. The slice for 1939 appears to be slightly larger than the slice for 1946, indicating that the percentage of Rupee loans for 1939 is slightly higher than that for 1946. Since the options given are 25%, 30%, and 35%, "nearly 30%" is the closest approximation.

C. Sterling loans slip from second position to fourth between the two periods

Explanation
In the given pie diagrams, the position of sterling loans changes from second to fourth between 1939 and 1946. This means that the amount of debt in the form of sterling loans decreases during this period, causing it to move down in the ranking of debts. Therefore, the statement "Sterling loans slip from second position to fourth between the two periods" is true.

Questions (Qs 4-7): are based on the following graph The year in which the net profit and Rs.50,000 is the gross profit Comparative Bar Chart representing Gross Profit and Net Profit in Rs. Thousands for the years 1974-77 Question:The ratio of gross profit to net profit for the entire period is

- B.
  
  11 : 5
- C.
  
  11 : 6
- D.
  
  9 : 4
Correct Answer
B. 11 : 5

Explanation
The ratio of gross profit to net profit for the entire period can be calculated by dividing the total gross profit by the total net profit. Looking at the bar chart, we can see that the total gross profit for the entire period is represented by the sum of the heights of the bars for each year, which is 11 units. Similarly, the total net profit is represented by the sum of the heights of the bars for each year, which is 5 units. Therefore, the ratio of gross profit to net profit for the entire period is 11:5.

The average percentage of net profit over gross profit for the entire period can be calculated by finding the average of the net profit percentage over the gross profit percentage for each year. Since the answer is "more than 40%", it means that the average percentage of net profit over gross profit is greater than 40%.

Questions (Qs 4-7): are based on the following graph The year in which the net profit and Rs.50,000 is the gross profit Comparative Bar Chart representing Gross Profit and Net Profit in Rs.

- D.

B. 1976

Explanation
In the given graph, the net profit and gross profit are represented for the years 1974-1977. To determine the year in which the increase in net profit is greater than that in gross profit, we need to compare the bars representing the net profit and gross profit for each year. By observing the graph, it can be seen that in 1976, the bar representing net profit is higher than the bar representing gross profit. Therefore, the increase in net profit is greater than that in gross profit in the year 1976.
