In the year 2021, if the price of Fertilizer-P was Rs 320 per Kg and Fertilizer-Q was Rs 280 per Kg for all companies, what was the fertilizer sales revenue from company E in Rs?

  • 1213200
  • 1854200
  • 2246300
  • 1965200
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Treat the two products as two separate income streams for company E and add them at the end. Company E's Fertilizer-P quantity is $0.13\times12000=1560$ Kg, earning $1560\times320=499200$ rupees at the given rate. Company E's Fertilizer-Q quantity is $0.17\times15000=2550$ Kg, earning $2550\times280=714000$ rupees at its rate. Adding both streams gives the total revenue from company E: $499200+714000=1213200$. \[\boxed{Rs\ 1213200}\]
