There are early movers—companies that are proactive and wish to remain relevant in the longer term. Then there are others whose actions are primarily reactive in nature to government policies, CSR, self-regulation by industry bodies and evolving customer preferences.

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
Experts seem unanimous that India is certainly a regional power. But is it? Recent events do not lend support to that view and the government was right in not paying heed to that rhetoric. India is without doubt the pre-eminent power in South Asia. However, given our firm commitment not to use force and to non-interference in internal affairs in other states, our neighbours do not feel threatened by us.
Which of the following is the most logical and rational corollary to the above passage?
Correct
Ans. D. A is wrong as the passage never states that it is good for neighbours to feel threatened by us. B is wrong as the implication is similar to a. C is wrong as Chinese threat is beyond the discussion of the passage. D is correct as the passage does suggest that despite neighbours not feeling threatened by us, we are still a regional power, which implies that hard power is not enough.

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
A started a business with a capital of 10,000 rupees and four months later B joined him with a capital of Rs 5000. How much A gets more than B in the profit, if the total profit at the end of the year is Rs 2000.
Correct
Solution: B
The ratio of the profits will be according to their investment X duration
Ratio of profits of A to B = 10000*12/5000*8
ð Ratio = 3:1
Total profit = 2000
Hence, profit of A = 1500
Profit of B = 500Therefore, profit of A is Rs. 1000 more than profit of B.
Hence, option(b) is correct.

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
A zoo consists of only Tigers and Lions. The number of tigers in a zoo is three times the number of lions. Which one of the following numbers cannot represent the total number of animals in the zoo?
Correct
Solution: B
Let the number of lions = x
We know that the number of tigers in a zoo is three times the number of lions. Hence, the number of tigers = 3x.
Then, x + 3x = 4x = total number of animals.
Thus the total number of animals is a number that must be divisible by 4.
Here, 42 is the only number which is not divisible by 4.
Hence, option (b) is the correct.Incorrect
Solution: B
Let the number of lions = x
We know that the number of tigers in a zoo is three times the number of lions. Hence, the number of tigers = 3x.
Then, x + 3x = 4x = total number of animals.
Thus the total number of animals is a number that must be divisible by 4.
Here, 42 is the only number which is not divisible by 4.
Hence, option (b) is the correct.
