Alka spends 90% of the money that she receives every month and saves Rs. 120. How much money does she get monthly?
Method 1: Let the total money be = Rs. x
Now money she spends = 90% of x =
The money she saves = 120
Now
Money spent + Money saved = Total Money
90x + 12000 = 100x
100x – 90x = 12000
10x = 12000
x = 1200
She earns Rs 1200 .
Method 2:
percentage of spending = 90%
Sumit borrowed a capital of Rs. 50,000 to start his food products business. In the first year he suffered a loss of 20%. He invested the remaining capital in a new sweets business and made a profit of 5%. How much was his profit or loss computed on his original capital?
Capital borrowed by Sumit = Rs 50,000
Now, Loss in first year = 20% of Rs 50,000
=
= Rs 10,000
∴ Remaining capital = Rs 50,000 – Rs 10,000
= Rs 40,000
Then,
He invested remaining capital in sweet business and had a profit of 5%.
∴ Profit amount = 5% of 40000
=
= Rs 2000
He occurred a profit of Rs 2000.
∴ The capital will be Rs 40000 + Rs 2000
= Rs 42,000.
Now,
Original capital = Rs 50,000
New capital after 2 years = Rs 42,000
∴ Loss% =
=
= 16%
Hence, his capital after 2 years = Rs 42,000 & he suffered a loss of 16% on the initial capital.
Nikhil spent 5% of his monthly income on his children's education, invested 14% in shares, deposited 3% in a bank and used 40% for his daily expenses. He was left with a balance of Rs. 19,000. What was his income that month?
Let the monthly salary of Nikhil = Rs x
The following table gives the expenditure of Nikhil:
∴ Total expenditure = 5% + 14% + 3% + 40%
= 62%
Now, remaining salary = 100% - 62% of total salary
= 38% of total salary
= Rs 19,000 ( given)
∴ 38% of x = Rs 19,000
⇒
⇒
⇒ x = Rs 50,000
Hence, the monthly income of Nikhil = Rs 50,000.
Mr. Sayyad kept Rs. 40,000 in a bank at 8% compound interest for 2 years. Mr. Fernandes invested Rs. 1,20,000 in a mutual fund for 2 years. After 2 years, Mr. Fernandes got Rs. 1,92,000. Whose investment turned out to be more profitable?
For Mr. Sayyad,
Principal amount, P = 40,000
Rate, r = 8%
Time period = n = 2year
Compound Interest (C.I) =
C.I =
= Rs. 6656
% profit(p) =
= 16.64%
For Fernandes,
Principal rate, P = Rs. 1,20,000
Time period, n = 2yr
Principal amount, A = Rs. 1,92,000
Profit = 1,92,000 – 1,20,000 = Rs. 72,000.
%Profit (p) =
= 60%.
Hence, Frenandes mutual fund is found to be profitable.
Sameera spent 90% of her income and donated 3% for socially useful causes. If she left with Rs. 1750 at the end of the month, what was her actual income?
Given,
Let Sameera’s income be Rs x.
Then, amount she spends = 90% of x
Donations by Sameera = 3% of x
Remaining amount = 100 – (90 + 3)% of x
And, the remaining amount = Rs. 1750
Here, 7% of x = Rs 1750
⇒
⇒
⇒ x = Rs 25,000
∴ her monthly income is Rs. 25,000.

Mr. Kartarsingh (age 48 years) works in a private company. His monthly income after deduction of allowances is Rs. 42,000 and every month he contributes Rs. 3000 to GPF. He has also bought Rs. 15,000 worth of NSC (National Savings Certificate) and donated Rs. 12,000 to the PM's Relief Fund. Compute his income tax.

Now, following table shows his investments:
Taxable salary = Rs. 5,04,000 – (Rs. 63,000)
= Rs. 4,41,000
It comes into table 1 and income tax slab 2.
5%(taxable minus 2.5lacs) =
= Rs.9550
∴ Income tax = Rs.9550
Primary cess = 2% of I.T.
= = Rs.191
Secondary cess = 1% of I.T.
= Rs.95.5
Total income tax = Rs.9550 + Rs.191 + Rs.95.5
