The correct answer is
Product V

Understanding Product Profit Calculation

Profit for a product is determined by subtracting its total cost value from its total sales value. The formula is:

$ \text{Profit} = \text{Sales Value} - \text{Cost Value} $

We need to calculate the profit for each of the five products (V, W, X, Y, Z) shown in the graph data.

Calculating Profit for Each Product

The costs and sales values are given in lakhs. Let's calculate the profit for each product:

ProductCost Value (lakhs)Sales Value (lakhs)Calculated Profit (lakhs)
V6578$78 - 65 = 13$
W6085.5$85.5 - 60 = 25.5$
X7569$69 - 75 = -6$ (Loss)
Y8092$92 - 80 = 12$
Z7077$77 - 70 = 7$

Identifying Maximum Profit Product

By comparing the calculated profits for all products:

  • Product V: Profit = 13 lakhs
  • Product W: Profit = 25.5 lakhs
  • Product X: Profit = -6 lakhs (Loss)
  • Product Y: Profit = 12 lakhs
  • Product Z: Profit = 7 lakhs

The highest profit among all products is 25.5 lakhs.

Therefore, Product W has earned the maximum profit.
