Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
\text{In 1995 for Company A we have}\\
\frac{E_A}{I_A}=1.75 & .....(i)\\
\text{In 1995 for Company B we have}\\
\frac{E_B}{I_B}=0.75 & .....(ii)\\
\text{Also, we have} E_A = 2 E_B & .....(iii)\\
I_A = 180 crores \\
\text{from (i)}\\
E_A = 180 * 1.75 = 315 crores \\
\text{from (iii)}\\
E_B = \frac{E_A}{2} = \frac{315}{2}crores \\
\text{from (ii)}\\
I_B = \frac{E_B}{0.75} \\
= \frac{315}{2*0.75} \\
= 210 crores
\end{aligned}
