Prueba temática 5: Multi-step data interpretation

  1. Pregunta 1 de 18

    The table shows third-quarter budgets and actual spending. Overall, by how much was actual spending above or below the total budget?
    DepartmentBudgetActual spending
    Operations$120,000$126,000
    Sales$80,000$76,400
    IT$45,000$49,950
    HR$30,000$29,100
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. $6,450 over budget

    Total budget = $275,000. Total actual = $281,450. Actual − budget = $6,450, so spending was over budget.

  2. Pregunta 2 de 18

    The table shows third-quarter budgets and actual spending. Which department overspent by the largest percentage of its budget?
    DepartmentBudgetActual spending

    Operations overspent by 6,000 ÷ 120,000 = 5%. IT overspent by 4,950 ÷ 45,000 = 11%. Operations had the bigger dollar amount, but IT the bigger percentage.
