The monthly income of a person is ₹25,000. He spends 80% of his income and saves the rest. His nominal income and his nominal spending both increase by 10%. What will be his new savings? |
₹5,500 ₹6,000 ₹5,750 ₹5,000 |
₹5,500 |
Let initial income = 25000 Expenditure = 80% of 25000 = \(\frac{4}{5}\) × 25000 = 20000 Saving = 25000 - 20000 = 5000 New income = 25000 + \(\frac{1}{10}\)× 25000 = 27500 New expenditure = 20000 + \(\frac{1}{10}\)× 20000 = 22000 New Saving = 27500 - 22000 = 5500 |
