Solution:

Total requirements of sugar for Indonesia

=100/18×3,20,000

= 17,77,777.78
Revised total requirement

= 17,77,777.78 -22/100

× 17,77,777.78

= 1,38,66,666.67
Import of sugar from India

= 12/100× 13,86,666.67

= 1,66,400
Total exports to Indonesia = 11,40,000 - 32,000 + 1,66,400 = 9,86,400
Decreased percentage

={ -9,86,400 +11, 40,000}/ {11,40,000}×100

= 13.47%
