Municipal Funds for the Year

Study the waterfall chart below. It starts with a municipality's balance at the beginning of the year, adds its income (green) and subtracts its expenses (red) to arrive at the ending balance, all in millions of pesos. Use it to answer the questions that follow.

Total expenses were what percent of the funds available (starting balance plus income)?

  1. 146.67%
  2. 88%
  3. 80%
  4. 92%

Answer

B. 88%

Solution

Expenses = 38 + 52 + 20 = 110. Available = 50 + 75 = 125. 110 ÷ 125 × 100 = 88%.
