Questions 19 to 20 carry 4 marks each.
19. A mobile phone factory currently produces 18,000 phones daily. Management plans to expand
production to 25,000 phones daily starting next year. Based on daily output, they need an annual
production estimate to prepare raw materials, staffing, and storage facilities. Without calculating
large numbers efficiently, the company risks running short of resources or overstocking products.

Based on this, Answer the following questions


(i) Calculate current annual production (365 days). (1)
(ii) Calculate future projected annual production. (1)
(iii) Express both in lakhs and crores. (2)
Ans. (i) 18,000 × 365 = 65,70,000
(ii) 25,000 × 365 = 91,25,000

Common questions

Expressing financial data in both systems, such as converting ₹23,547,500 to 'Two crore thirty-five lakh forty-seven thousand five hundred' in the Indian system and 'Twenty-three million five hundred forty-seven thousand five hundred' in the International system, can be challenging due to different groupings and cultural norms. Solutions include using dual presentations in reports to improve understanding across audiences. Such practices help avoid misinterpretation and build trust among stakeholders by enhancing transparency and clarity, as illustrated with Green Valley School’s financial reporting .

Rounding numbers helps simplify complex data, allowing better readability and quicker mental computation, which is crucial in economic forecasting and planning. By rounding, like approximating 92,58,000 to 1 crore, planners can align resources more efficiently, prepare for potential outcomes, and communicate forecasts more clearly . However, rounding may also hide small details that could be significant over time, hence planners need to balance simplicity with precision.

Population estimates, like those showing City A and B's future populations at approximately 46 lakh and 108 lakh respectively, inform decisions on resources, infrastructure, and services. By comparing these estimates, urban planners can prioritize areas for investment, ensure spatial planning is effective, and address socio-economic needs . The significant difference in projected populations indicates differing needs and challenges, necessitating tailored strategies for each city.

Estimation allows for quicker decision-making, particularly when decisions need to be made rapidly, and the exact precision of data is not critical. Although exact calculations provide accuracy, they are not always feasible, especially under time constraints or when dealing with very large datasets, such as annual production forecasts. As shown, estimation is useful despite the fact that exact calculations are often preferred .

The Indian system places commas differently, dividing numbers into crores and lakhs, while the International system uses millions and thousands. For instance, 75,38,46,120 is expressed as 'Seventy-five crore thirty-eight lakh forty-six thousand one hundred twenty' in the Indian system, and 'Seven hundred fifty-three million eight hundred forty-six thousand one hundred twenty' in the International system . These differences can lead to misinterpretation if not clearly specified, especially in financial and statistical data communication.
