Question
At a new index of 12 shares, the shares of HBL, Niposys and Brilliance have a weightage of 7%, 13% and 1% respectively. What is the increase in the price of the other shares, if the rise in these three is 9%, 10% and 4%, when the index rises by 6%?
Answer: Option C
:
C
Lets say the value of the index = 100
HBL = 7
Niposys = 13
Brilliance = 1
Others = 100 - 21 = 79
Increased index value = 106
Increased individual values
HBL = 1.09 × 7=7.63
Niposys = 1.1 × 13 =14.3
Brilliance = 1.04 × 1 = 1.04
Total = 22.97
Others = 106 - 22.97 = 83.03
Increase =83.03−7979×100=5.1% (approx)
