* Cost of revenue from operations ₹1,20,000
* Selling expenses ₹80,000
* Administrative expenses ₹40,000

Options:

70.59%

73.95%

46.17%

Correct Answer:

70.59%

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2- 70.59%.

Operating ratio = (Cost of Revenue from operations + operating expenses)/ Revenue from operations x 100
                        = (1,20,000 + 1,20,000)/3,40,000 x 100
                        = 2,40,000/3,40,000 x 100
                       = 70.58%

*Operating expenses include both selling and administrative expenses.
