- $\begin{matrix} \ \text{Urad}&\text{Masoor}&\text{Mung}\end{matrix}\\\begin{bmatrix}150&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 220\\400&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 280\end{bmatrix}\begin{matrix}\text{Shayam}\\\text{Balwan singh}\end{matrix}$

- Which variety of pulse has the highest selling value in the month of September for the farmer Balwan Singh?
- Urad
- Masoor
- Mung
- All of these have the same price
- (c) ₹ 40000
Solution:
Combined sales of Masoor in September and October for farmer Balwan Singh = ₹ 40000
- (d) ₹ 15000
Solution:
Combined sales of Urad in September and October for farmer Shyam = ₹ 15000
- (a) ₹ 24000
Solution:
Change in sales from September to October is given by:
$\begin{matrix}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{Urad}&\text{Masoor}&\text{Mung}\end{matrix}\\\text{A-B}=\begin{bmatrix}5000&10000&24000\\30000&20000&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{matrix}\text{Shayam}\\\text{Balwan singh}\end{matrix}$
$\therefore$ Decrease in sales of Mung from September to October for farmer Shyam = ₹ 24000.
- (b) $\begin{matrix} \ \text{Urad}&\text{Masoor}&\text{Mung}\end{matrix}\\\begin{bmatrix}100&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 120\\400&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 200\end{bmatrix}\begin{matrix}\text{Shayam}\\\text{Balwan singh}\end{matrix}$
Solution:
Required profit is given by:
2% of $\text{B}=\frac{2}{100}\times\text{B}=0.02\times\text{B}$
$\begin{matrix} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{Urad}&\text{Masoor}&\text{Mung}\end{matrix}\\=0.02\begin{bmatrix}100&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 120\\400&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 200\end{bmatrix}\begin{matrix}\text{Shayam}\\\text{Balwan singh}\end{matrix}$
$\begin{matrix} \ \ \ \ \ \text{Urad}&\text{Masoor}&\text{Mung}\end{matrix}\\=\begin{bmatrix}100&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 120\\400&\ \ \ \ \ \ 200&\ \ \ \ \ 200\end{bmatrix}\begin{matrix}\text{Shayam}\\\text{Balwan singh}\end{matrix}$
Thus, in October Shyam receives ₹ 100, ₹ 200 and ₹ 120 as profit in the sale of each variety of pulses, respectively and Balwan Singh receives a profit of ₹ 400, ₹ 200 and ₹ 200 in the sale of each variety of pulses respectively.
