Mr. Sohan works for Azania Company. The company grants 1000 shares to Mr. Sohan in 2008. At that point each share is worth Rs. 100. In 2010, he decides to sell his entire stake and at that point, the value is Rs. 120 per share. The government declares that the tax to be paid is 10% of the entire profit. Due to the inflation, the value of a rupee in 2010 is equivalent to 0.8 of a rupee in 2008. In this situation, which of the following model indicates the actual tax to be paid by the investor?

Answer / Bikram Kumar Tiwary

Let's break down the problem step by step:
1. The profit per share is Rs. 20 (120 - 100).
2. Since there are 1000 shares, the total profit is Rs. 20 * 1000 = Rs. 200,000.
3. The tax rate is 10%, so the tax to be paid is Rs. 200,000 * 0.1 = Rs. 20,000.
4. In 2010, the value of a rupee is 0.8 times its value in 2008. So, the actual cost of the shares in 2010 (in terms of 2008 money) is Rs. 100 * 0.8 = Rs. 80.
5. Since there are 1000 shares, the total cost in 2010 (in terms of 2008 money) is Rs. 80 * 1000 = Rs. 800,000.
6. The actual profit (in terms of 2008 money) is Rs. 200,000 - Rs. 800,000 = -Rs. 600,000 (which means a loss).nTherefore, the model indicating the actual tax to be paid by the investor is that the investor incurred a loss of Rs. 600,000.

Mr. Beans visited a magic shop and bought some magical marbles of different colours along with other magical items. While returning home whenever he saw a coloured light, he took out marbles of similar colours and counted them. So he counted the pink coloured marbles and found that he has bought 25 of them. Then he counted 14 green marbles and then 21 yellow marbles. He later counted 30 purple coloured marbles with him. But when he reached a crossing, he looked at a red light and started counting red marbles and found that he had bought 23 Red marbles. As soon as he finished counting, it started raining heavily and by the time he reached home he was drenched. After reaching home he found that the red, green and yellow marbles had magically changed colours and became white, while other marbles were unchanged. It will take 1 day to regain its colours, but he needs to give atleast one pair of marbles to his wife now. So how many white marbles must be choose and give to his wife so as to ensure that there is atleast one pair of red, yellow and green marbles ?
