The expenditure on interest on loans is more than the expenditure on transport by:

Option 1: 5%

Option 2: 10%

Option 3: 40%

Option 4: 30%

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Solution : From the graph,
The percentage of money spent on transit = 12.5

Percentage increase = $\frac{\text{( Interest on loans expense – Transport expenditure)}}{\text{(Transport expenditure)}} \times 100$
So, the required percentage $=\frac{(17.5 – 12.5)}{12.5}\times100=\frac{5}{12.5} \times 100=40$%
