Q:
A) Rs. 30 | B) Rs. 25 |
C) Rs. 20 | D) can't be determined |
Answer: A) Rs. 30
Explanation:
Explanation:
Let the fixed expenditure of the hotel be Rs.x and the variable expenditure ( which is dependent on the guest ) is Rs.y , then
x + 10y = 600 ---------(1)
x + 20y = 800 ----------(2)
From (1) & (2)
10y = 200
=> y = Rs. 20 and x= 400
Hence the total expenditure when there are 40 guests = 400 + 40 x 20 = 1200
Therefore, average expenditure = 1200/40 = Rs. 30
