Question
If the June average rainfall in 2005, 2008 and 2011 is equal to 21 millimeters. What percent of the 2005 average July rainfall is
the July average rainfall in 2011 and 2008 combined?
Answer
89.5%
59.7%
99.8%
74.9%
93.8% !
Feedback
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the July average rainfall for the three years.
2005: 21 / 0.65 = 32.3 millimeter

2008: 21 / 1.25 = 16.8 millimeter
2011: 21 / 1.55 = 13.5 millimeter
Step 2: Calculate the combined 2008 & 2011 July average rainfall as a percent of July 2005
(16.8 + 13.5) / 32.3 x 100 = 93.8%
Thus the correct answer is (E), 93.8%

SHL - Reading Comprehension
Question
A number of underlying drivers affected the Top 50 firms’ results. For example, in 2013, 16 firms
experienced revenue declines or did not grow as fast as inflation, down from 24 firms in 2012. This
result is lower than all but three years since 2003. Fewer firms experienced revenue declines in 2013
and it may indicate that the industry has turned around following the recession and is growing again.
Another driver of the Top 50 firms’ successes are syndicated services firms, which typically include
long-term contracts. Nine of the Top 50 firms are syndicated services providers, including Nielsen, IMS
Health, IRI, Arbitron, J.D. Power and Associates, NPD Group, comScore, Rentrak and National Research
Group. Their impact is significant, accounting for about 50% of Top 50 firm revenues. Each of these
firms’ revenue totals consistently grow between 3% and 6% per year, and 2013 was no exception. On
average, their revenue increased 4.7%. The remaining 41 firms, mostly survey-based providers that
conduct custom, ad hoc and tracking projects, are typical without the support of continuing contracts,
so their revenue results are more volatile. In 2013, the 41 firms’ revenue grew just 2.5%, and they
accounted for 14 of the 16 firms that did not grow at all or experienced revenue declines.
Refer to the paragraph, how many firms experienced revenue declines or did not grow as fast as
inflation in 2012?
Answer
16
14
24 !
Explanation
Solution
Solution:
The correct answer is D.
A . The passage states that 16 firms experienced revenue declines or did not
grow as fast as inflation, down from 24 firms in 2012.
B . 16 is the number of firms that experienced revenue declines or did not

grow as fast as inflation in 2013.
C . 14 is the number of firms that did not grow at all or experienced revenue
declines.
D . 9 is the number of firms that experienced revenue totals consistently

grow between 3% and 6% per year.

Question
Q5: Payment of the annual service charge entitles the truck to free after sales services for the year.
What was the total service charge collected in 2014 if all trucks purchased in the years shown were
subscribed to the annual service charge and the service is available for only the first three years of
purchase?
Answer
$1.5 million
$11.3 million !
$2.3 million
Feedback
$15.7 million
$23.2 million
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the total service charge collected in 2014. In 2014 trucks
bought in 2012, 2013 and 2014 will pay for the service charge.
(15,905 + 12,636 + 16,710) x $250 = $11,312,750

products?
Answer
$1.35 million
$4 million
$5 million !
$11.35 million
$15.35 million
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the 1990 total production budget for all products.
Feedback
$10,000 x (300 + 410 + 260 + 300 + 365) = $16,350,000
Step 2: Calculate the 1991 total production budget for all products.
$10,000 x (225 + 275 + 175 + 210 + 250) = $11,350,000
Step 3: Calculate the total cut.
1990 production budget – 1991 production budget = 16,350,000 – 11,350,000
= 5,000,000
So the correct answer is (C), $5 million

Question
Q8: Which product has suffered the largest percentage cut in its production budget?
Answer
Product A
Product B !
Product C
Product D
Product E
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the % cut for each product from 1990 to 1991:
Product A = 75/300 x 100% = 25%

Product B = 135/410 x100% = 32.9%
Product C = 85/260 x 100% = 32.7%
Product D = 90/300 x 100% = 30%
Product E = 115/365 x 100% = 31.5%
So the correct answer is (B), Product B
Question
Q10: The total 1991 production budget for all five products is to be cut by a quarter in 1992. What is the
1992 Production Budget to the nearest £100,000? Assuming the exchange rate is 1£ = $1.2
Answer
£3 million
£3.1 million
£5.2 million
£6.2 million
£7.1 million !
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the 1991 total production budget for each product.
$10,000 x (225 + 275 + 175 + 210 + 250) = $11,350,000
Step 2: Calculate the 1992 total production budget for each product.
$11,350,000 x 75% = $8,512,500
Step 3: Convert into £
$8,512,500 / 1.2 = £7,094,000 = £7.1 million to the nearest £100,000
So the correct answer is (E), £7.1 million

Question
Q11: $475,000 was earned as interest from an investment in Company Z in 2009. How much more or less
interest would have been earned if the investment was made in Company Y?
Answer
$190,000 more
$142,500 more
$118,750 less
$118,750 more !
$142,500 less
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the amount that was invested in company Z in 2009.
$475,000 / 0.08 = $5,937,500
Step 2: Calculate the interest that would have been earned had investment
been made in company Y.
$5,937,500 x 0.1 = $593,750
Step 3: Calculate the difference in interest.
$593,750 - $475,000 = $118,750 more
So the correct answer is (D), $118,750 more
