Reveal answer & explanation

Correct answer: A) P, Q, R and T

Explanation

Total revenue is 9,50,000, so the revenue threshold is 95,000: only P and Q pass. For results, the greater of total profits (1,50,000) and total losses (40,000) is 1,50,000, so the threshold is 15,000; R's loss of 40,000 qualifies. Total assets are 10,50,000, so the threshold is 1,05,000; T's assets of 1,10,000 qualify. S fails all three tests. The reportable segments P, Q, R and T cover 92.6% of external revenue, which exceeds 75%, so no further segment needs to be added.
