department over the five years and calculate its percentage share of the total budget allocated across all departments over these five years. A company distributes its yearly budget among five departments: Research, Development, Marketing, HR, and IT. The table below shows the percentage allocation of the budget to each department over five years. The total budget for each year is ₹500 crores.Solution
Total allocation to Development over the five years: Development allocation = (25% of 500) + (24% of 500) + (26% of 500) + (25% of 500) + (20% of 500) = (125 + 120 + 130 + 125 + 100) crores = ₹600 crores. Total budget across all departments over the five years: Total budget = 500 × 5 = ₹2500 crores. Percentage share of Development: Percentage = (Development total / Total budget) × 100 = (600 / 2500) × 100 = 24%. Correct answer: a) ₹600 crores, 24%.
