Answers:

1. 3
? = (100 - 1/51) * 561 = 56089

2. 2
? = 114/100 * 250 + 124/100 * 450
= 285 + 558 = 843

3. 5
? = 5/21 + 6/35
= (25 + 18)/105 = 43/105

4. 3
From statement A,
Total CP of 80 kg = (5200 + 400) = Rs. 5600

From statement B, profit = 15%
Combining both the statement A and B, we get

SP = 115/100 * 5600 = Rs. 6440
SP per kg of sugar = 6440/80 = Rs. 80.5

5. 4;
Let edge of the cube be a metre.
From statement A;
a^2 = 81
a = 9 m
Volume = a^3 = 93 = 729 m^3

From statement B,
a = 9 m
Volume = a3 = 93 = 729 m3

6. 2
From statement B,
Speed of boat in still water = 1/2 * 16 = 8 km/hr

7. 3
Let the original number be 10x + y
(10x + y) – (10y + x) = 36
9x – 9y = 36
x – y = 4 and x + y = 8
x = 6; y = 2
The original number = 62

8. 4
Let two trains meet at x km from station S1

Time taken by K to cover (640 – x) km – Time taken by J to cover x km.
 40/60 = 2/3
(640 - x)/100 - x/80 = 40/60
x = 6880/ = 254.81 km

9. 3
Let the money lent to Anshul be Rs. x

Then, money lent to Rajat = Rs. (20000 – x)

SI for Anshul = x * 20 * 4/100 = 20x/25

SI for Rajat = (20000 - x) * 24 * 4/100 =

According to the question,
20x/25 - (20000 - x) 24/25 = 864
x = 11400

Amount lent to Rajat = Rs. (20000 – 11400) = Rs. 8600

10. 1;
Speed of the person = 6 km/hr
= 6 * 5/18 = 5/3 m/s
Let the speed of train be x m/s
20 = 280/(x - 5/3)
x - 5/3 = 14
x = 47/3m/s
Now the distance covered by train in 45 minutes.
= 47/3 * 60 * 45 = 42300
Time taken by person to cover the distance
= 42300/(6*5/18) = 25380 sec
25380/(60 * 60) = 7 hours 3 minutes

Answers

1. (a) Only assumption I is implicit in the statement. The instruction was given on the assumption that people tend to be little shy and less objective while writing their self appraisal report.

2. (e) Both assumption I and II are implicit in the statement. Assumption I is clearly implicit in the statement since it is stated that bosses should not be considered as merely sources of reward and punishments. It implies that the bosses are generally considered so. Hence assumption II is also implicit in the statement.

3. (e) Both the assumption I and II are implicit in the statement. Assumption II is clearly implicit in the statement. Assumption I is also implicit because the shopkeeper gives his suggestions on the assumption that the customer will consider it.

4. (d) Assumption I is not implicit. Consumers are paying mere attention to prices and quality product now-a-days does not mean that they were indifferent to these
factors earlier. Assumption II is just the opposite of what is told in the statement. So it is also not implicit.

5. (a) Only assumption I is implicit in the statement. The statement does not imply that all functions of the company are implicit. So assumption II is not implicit.

6. (a) One complaint is enough for a wrong doing. This should be confirmed by catching the guilty red- should be handed and strict action taken against him. So only course I follows.

7. (b) An already working Finance Minister shall know better all the plans and resources of the Government and he alone can present a suitable budget. So course II
should be followed.

8. (a) Such projects shall be an asset and a source of income to the country later on. So course I shall follow

9. (a) The effectiveness of such control boards is established by the fact that Orissa and A.P have agreed to it for better control of its multipurpose projects. Hence only I follows.

10. (d) None follows. Firstly , the notification is issued to promote the natural environment and so cannot be withdrawn and secondly, the sanctuaries etc cannot be shifted.

Back in May 2011, the Fund’s Executive Directors from the BRICS economies openly revolted against the prospect of the position of Managing Director reverting to a European, deepening the woes of an organisation that had been rocked by the resignation of Dominique Strauss-Kahn following sexual assault allegations. At the time, Arvind Virmani, Executive Director, from India, argued that the 2008 global financial crisis erupted in developed countries and its provenance “underscored the urgency of reforming international financial institutions so as to reflect the growing role of developing countries in the world economy”.
