getting OA 32.5 VA13.5 DM8.5 QA10.5? what are the chances for XLRI? will 8.5 be enough to clear the cutoff for XLRI BM?

XAT Qstn :- 
60. Company ABC starts an educational program in collaboration with Institute XYZ. As per the
agreement, ABC and XYZ will share profit in 60:40 ratio. The initial investment of ₹100,000 on
infrastructure is borne entirely by ABC whereas the running cost of ₹400 per student is borne by
XYZ. If each student pays ₹2000 for the program find the minimum number of students requiredto make the program profitable, assuming ABC wants to recover its investment in the very firstyear and the program has no seat limits.A. 63B. 84C. 105D. 157E. 167

================

XAT solution:-

For program to be profitable both companies must recover costs before they can start
making profits.
Since, ABC wants to recoup investment in the first year and there is no limit of number of
students profits can only be shared after both companies can reach a situation of minimum
profits (zero profit), which would be:
400푥 + 100000 = 2000푥, 
Left hand side represents total costs and right hand side represents revenues. Let 푥 be
minimum number of students required to reach a situation of minimum profits (in this case
0).
For the entire program, the MINIMUM students required for minimum profit is =
100000/(2000 - 400) = 62.5 = 63

===================

Bhai ye to inhone kewal profitable kar diya company ko ABC ko apna hissa kaise mila??? 60:40 jo ratio diya hai wo deke khud use karna bhool gaye.. kya bc hai..

Dekho yaar isko.. ye sahi hai kyaa?

How much %ile Will a score of 22.75 correspond to?

30.5 as per CL predictor and 24.25 as per XL keys .Am I the only one whose score has fallen by such huge margin? What bullshit answers have they given for DM 😞 Any chances of key getting revised?Kabhi hua hai aisa past mein?

VA - 7 , DM - 13.5 and Quants - 3.75 , total 24.25 , and unattemped deduction of 0.25 , guys someone can give me my sectional percentiles please .....

Hi Everyone,

can anyone please tell me if 10.5 is enough to cross Decision Making Cutoff??  Thanks in advance.

P.S. My total is 41.5 so I guess I should be safe there.

guys which are the top 10 colleges accepting xat score ?

So when are the results expected???because I feel that they release answer key only after checking all the OMRs

Will 9.45 in quant be enough for Bm

VA-11.80

DM-15.60

QA-7.30

OA-34.7

Absolutely Gutted !!!! Will miss the QA cutoff (BM) for sure

first iim's, now XAT. from 28-33 by different institutes to 22 using XAT key. hopes crashed. sala mba hi nahi karna ab. dimag kharab kr diya hai sala. %ile sai aaye to academic profile, vo ho to professional profile. glti s vo bhi ho padha bhi ho to D-day factor bhi tumhare sath ho. khoon choos lo insaan ka. questions aise daal rkhe hai k 4 xlri k teachers ko samne khade krde to vo bhi alag alag batayenge answers. jo answers khud ko nahi pata, unke basis pe doosro ko judge krte hai. goodbye PG, karni hi nahi yaha se mba.
