(2) 6%

(3) 8%                  

(4) 10%

(5) None of these

2.    Near about 20% of the funds are to be arranged through ?

(1) SPVS              

(2) Annuity

(3) External Assistance

(4) Market borrowing

(5) None of these

3.    The central angle corresponding to Market Borrowing is ?

(1) 187.2 degree

(2) 183.2  degree

(3) 181.2 degree

(4) 180.2 degree

(5) None of these

4.    If the toll is to be collected through an outsourced agency by allowing a maximum 10% commission, how much amount should be permitted to be collected by the outsourced agency, so that the project is supported with Rs. 4,910 crores?

(1) Rs. 5401 crore

(2) Rs. 5301 crore

(3) Rs. 5201 crore

(4) Rs. 5101 crore

(5) None of these

5.  The approximate ratio of the funds to be arranged through Toll and that through Market Borrowing is ?

(1) 1 : 6                 

(2) 2 : 5

(3) 3 : 7                 

(4) 6 : 7

(5) None of these

Explanation:
1.New funds = 11486 - 9695

= Rs. 1791 crores
Increase in requirement of market borrowing is 1791 crore

Now, 1791 crore is what percent of Market Borrowing

=[(1791)/(29952)]∗100%=5.98%=6% (approx)

2.    Explanation:

Total funds are = 29952+11486+5252+4910+6000
= 57600 crore
Now 20% of 57600 = 20/100 * 576000
= 11520 crore
Which is approximately equal to External Assistance

3.    Explanation:

Central angle corresponding to Market Borrowing

[(29952/57600)]∗360=187.2 degree

4.    Amount required = (Funds required from toll) + (10% of these funds)
= 4910 + 10% of (4910)
= 4910 + (10/100)*4910
= 4910 + 491
= 5401 crore 

5.  Explanation:

Required Ratio=4910/29952=1/6.1=1:6
