What is the amount spent on overhead expenses?
-
- $ 12,000
- $ 15,000
- $ 18,000

Correct Option: C
According to given pie chart in question ,
Corresponding angle for overhead expenses = 108°
Total expenditure = $ 60000
⇒ 360° ≡ $ 60000
| ∴ Required amount = | × Corresponding angle for overhead expenses | Total angle for expenditure |
| ∴ Required amount = 108° ≡ | × 108 = $ 18000 | 360 |
