Question 1 · Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning MCQ

A country's Total Trade is $500$ billion and its Trade Balance is $100$ billion (surplus). What is the value of its Exports?

A.
$300$ billion
B.
$200$ billion
C.
$400$ billion
D.
$600$ billion

Correct Answer:

Step-by-Step Solution

Key idea: This is a reverse-engineering question, recognisable because it provides the aggregate metrics (Total Trade and Trade Balance) and asks for a specific component (Exports).

Step 1: Recall the relationships. Total Trade = $X + M$ and Trade Balance = $X - M$ .

Step 2: Add the two equations. $(X + M) + (X - M) = 2 X$ . Therefore, $2 X = Total Trade + Trade Balance$ .

Step 3: Substitute the given values. $2 X = 500 + 100 = 600$ .

Step 4: Solve for $X$ . $X = 300$ .

Answer: $300$ billion.
