In 2006, if sales value of B increases by 10% and that of A decreases by 10%. What is the percentage change in sales, if sale of all other brands remain same?

Correct Option: 2
For Brand A (45%):\newlineDecrease of 10% means contribution becomes\newline= 45%×0.945\% × 0.9\newline= 40.5%40.5\% (a decrease of 4.5%4.5\%)
For Brand B (15%):\newlineIncrease of 10% means contribution becomes\newline= 15%×1.115\% × 1.1\newline= 16.5%16.5\% (an increase of 1.5%1.5\%)
Net change in total sales:\newline= Decrease in A + Increase in B\newline= −4.5%+1.5%-4.5\% + 1.5\%\newline= −3%-3\%
Therefore, the overall sales will decrease by 3%.
