D. 4% loss
Answer: Option C
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Total income of all the five companies= Rs. (35 + 50 + 40 + 40 + 50) crores
= Rs. 215 crores
Total expenditure of all the five companies
= Rs. (45 + 40 + 45 + 30 + 45) crores
= Rs. 205 crores
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore \text{ Profit percent}\cr & = \frac{\text{Income - Expenditure}}{\text{Expenditure}}\times100 \cr & = \frac{215 - 205}{205}\times100 \cr & = \frac{1000}{205} \cr & = 4.88\% \cr} $$
