Q: Which department overspent its allocated budget by the maximum absolute amount?

Correct Answer: Option D (Infrastructure). Overspending occurs when Expenditure > Allocation. Education overspent by 780 - 750 = 30. Infrastructure overspent by 950 - 900 = 50. Infrastructure is the maximum.

Q: What is the ratio of total budget allocation to total expenditure across all departments?

Correct Answer: Option B (43:42). Total Allocation = 800 + 750 + 1200 + 900 + 650 = 4300. Total Expenditure = 720 + 780 + 1150 + 950 + 600 = 4200. Ratio = 4300 : 4200 = 43 : 42.

Q: The expenditure on Defense is approximately what percentage of the total expenditure of all departments combined?

Correct Answer: Option C (27.4%). Defense Expenditure = 1150. Total Expenditure = 4200. Percentage = (1150 / 4200) * 100 = 27.38%.

Q: What is the average unutilized budget (in Lakh Rs) for the departments that underspent their allocation?

Correct Answer: Option C (60). Underspending departments (Allocation > Exp): Health (800-720 = 80), Defense (1200-1150 = 50), Agriculture (650-600 = 50). Total unutilized = 80 + 50 + 50 = 180. Average = 180 / 3 = 60.

Q: The budget allocation for Agriculture is approximately what percent less than the allocation for Infrastructure?

Correct Answer: Option B (27.8%). Agri Allocation = 650. Infra Allocation = 900. Difference = 900 - 650 = 250. Percentage less = (250 / 900) * 100 = 27.77% ≈ 27.8%.
