Question: 5
If there is rejection of \(10\%\) of the production in 2000 due to quality control issues, what is the turnover of PAL, assuming sales = production - rejection?
Production rejected in 2000 = 40000 ×\(\frac{10}{100}\) = 4000 Thus the products available for sale = 40000−4000 = 36000 Required turnover = 36000 × 3 ,00000=1080 crore. So the correct option is (C).
