    C Rs.12,200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.12,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, We can say that the income of S be Rs. ‘x’ So, income of Q = (x + x) × (4000/100) = Rs. ‘41x’ Let the expenses of 'S' be ‘12y’ So, expenses of Q = 12y × (125/12) = Rs. ‘125y’ ATQ; 125y – 12y = 90,400 Or, 113y = 90400 So, y = 800 So, 41x – 800 × 125 = 3,89,600 + x – (12 × 800) Or, 40x = 3,89,600 + 100000 – 9600 Or, 40x = 480000 So, x = 12000 So, income of S = Rs. 12,000
