Solution:

Data:Expenditure per year = 500 × 106 Rs.Revenue in 2014 = 500 × 106 Rs.Revenue in 2015 = 700 × 106 Rs.Revenue in 2016 = 800 × 106 Rs.Revenue in 2017 = 600 × 106 Rs.Revenue in 2018 = 400 × 106 Rs.Formula:% profit = \(\frac{Total \; profit}{Total \; expenditure} \times 100\)CalculationTotal expenditure = number of years × expenditure per year? Total expenditure = 5 × 500 × 106 = 2500 × 106 Rs.Total Revenue = (500 + 700 + 800 + 600 + 400) × 106 Rs.? Total Revenue = 3000 × 106 RsTotal profit = Total Revenue - Total expenditure = 500 × 106% profit = \(\frac{500 \times 10^6}{2500 \times 10^6} \times 100 = 20\)
