    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

     I. Material cost = Rs. 2.50 per m2

     

     II. Labour cost = Rs. 3500.

     

     III. Total cost = Rs. 14,500.

     

     Let the area be A sq. metres.

     

     Material cost = Rs. (14500 - 3500) = Rs. 11,000.

     

    \(\frac {5 A} { 2 } \)=11000 A =\([ \frac { 11000 *2} {5 } ]\)=4400 m2.

     

    Thus, all I, II and III are needed to get the answer.

     

     Correct answer is (C).
