Answer the following questions based on the information given below:
Odsville has five firms – Alfloo, Bzygoo, Czechy, Drjbna and Elavalaki. Each of these firms was founded in some year and also closed down a few years later.
Each firm raised Rs. 1 crore in its first and last year of existence. The amount each firm raised every year increased until it reached a maximum, and then decreased until the firm closed down. No firm raised the same amount of money in two consecutive years. Each annual increase and decrease was either by Rs. 1 crore or by Rs. 2 crores.
The table below provides partial information about the five firms.
What best can be concluded about the total amount of money raised in 2015?
Answer: B
Consider the solution for the first questions of this set.
Amount of money raised in 2015 by:
A = 2
B = 1
C = 3
D = 1
E = 1 or 0
∴ Total money raised by them in 2015 = 2 + 1 + 3 + 1 + (1 or 0) = 8 or 7 crores.
Hence, option (b).
