CAT 2024 Question Paper | DILR Slot 2

CAT Questions

CAT 2024 DILR did not have a change in pattern. Atleast two sets were doable in each slot and one of the four sets was extremely tough. Choice of Sets became a crucial factor. Overall this section was at a medium to high level of difficulty.

The two plots below give the following information about six firms A, B, C, D, E, and F for 2019 and 2023.

PAT: The firm's profits after taxes in Rs. crores,

ES: The firm's employee strength, that is the number of employees in the firm, and

PRD: The percentage of the firm's PAT that they spend on Research and Development (R&D).

In the plots, the horizontal and vertical coordinates of point representing each firm gives their ES and PAT values respectively. The PRD values of each firm are proportional to the areas around the points representing each firm. The areas are comparable between the two plots, i.e., equal areas in the two plots represent the same PRD values for the two years.

Question 19 : Assume that the annual rate of growth in PAT over the previous year (ARG) remained constant over the years for each of the six firms. Which among the firms A, B, C, and E had the highest ARG?
