    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    The percentage profit/loss in the year 2001 for various comapanies are

    For M =[ \(\frac {(35-45) } { 45 } \) x 100 ]% = -22.22% i.e.,   Loss = 22.22%

    For N = [\(\frac { (50-40) } { 40 }\) x 100]% =25%  i.e.,   Profit = 25%

    For P = [\(\frac { (40-45) } {45 } \) x 100]% = -11.11%  i.e.,  Loss = 11.11%.

    For Q =[ \(\frac { (40-30) } { 30 } \) x100]% =33.33%   i.e.,   Profit = 33.33%

    For R = [\(\frac { (50-45) } { 45 } \) x 100 ]% = 11.11%  i.e.,   Profit = 11.11%

    Clearly, the Company Q earned the maximum profit in 2001
