Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Both statements together are sufficient to determine the total sale.
Reasoning:
The statement that the company sold 8000 units of product A at Rs. 25 lets us compute product A sales: 8000 × 25 = Rs. 200,000.
The statement that the company has no other product line tells us there are no other sales to add; therefore product A sales equal the company’s total sales.
Alone, the first statement gives product A sales but not necessarily the company total (other products could exist). Alone, the second statement gives no sales amount. Together they allow the conclusion that total sale = Rs. 200,000.
Final calculation: 8000 × 25 = Rs. 200,000.
