KK, an aspiring entrepreneur wanted to set up a pen drive manufacturing unit. Since technology was changing very fast, he wanted to carefully gauge the demand and the likely profits before investing. Market survey indicated that he would be able to sell 1 lac units before customers shifted to different gadgets. KK realized that he had to incur two kinds of costs – fixed costs (the costs which do not change, irrespective of numbers of units of pen drives produced) and variable costs (= variable cost per unit multiplied by number of units). KK expected fixed cost to be Rs. 40 lac and variable cost to be Rs. 100 per unit. He expected each pen drive to be sold at Rs. 200.

A. Rs. 80 lac
B. Rs. 100 lac
C. Rs. 120 lac
D. Rs. 140 lac
E. Cannot be found with the given data.[2] KK was sceptical that per unit variable might increase by 10% though the demand might remain same. What will be the expected changes in profit in such a case?
A. Profit would decrease by 10.33%
B. Profit will increase will by 15.75%
C. Profit would decrease by 15.75%

E. Profit will increase by 16.67%[3] He discussed his business with a chartered accountant. KK informed that he was contemplating a loan of Rs. 20 lac at simple interest of 10% per annum for starting the business. The chartered accountant informed him that in such a case KK has to pay interest, followed by 30% tax.
By how much does KK‟s earnings change with 20% growth in sales vis-à-vis the original sales volume, in both cases considering tax and interest on loan?
