Q114 of 140 Page 196

Bhavya earns Rs 50,000 per month and spends 80% of it. Due to pay revision, her monthly income increases by 20% but due to price rise, she has to spend 20% more. Find her new savings.

Given, Bhavya earns 50000 per month


And spends 80% of 50000 = × 50000 = 40000


And savings per month = 50000-40000 = 10000


Given increment in monthly income = 20% of 50000


= × 50000 = 10000


Bhavya’s new income = 50000 + 10000 = 60000


Increase in expenditure = 20% of 40000 = × 40000 = 80000


new expenditure = 40000 + 8000 = 48000


Bhavya’s new savings = 60000-48000 = 12000
