CAT 2001 — DILR Question 12
Answer the following question based on the information given below.
Figure 1 shows the amount of work distribution, in man-hours, for a software between offshore and onsite activities. Figure 2 shows the estimated and actual work effort involved in the different offshore activities in the same company during the same period. [Note: Onsite refers to work performed at the customer's premise and offshore refers to work performed at the developer's premise.]
If the total working hours were 100, which of the following tasks will account for approximately 50 hours?
Answer & solution
Correct answer: Coding
Coding
- B
Design
- C
Offshore testing
- D
Offshore testing plus design
Using the data from the previous question.
Total amount of work = 800 + 340 = 1140
Total coding man-hours = 410 + 100 = 510
Total design man-hours = 90 + 100 = 190
Total offshore testing man-hours = 290
Total offshore testing plus design man-hours = 290 + 190 = 480
50% of 1140 = 570
510 is more closer to 570.
Hence, option (a).
