Sandeep spends 32% of his annual income on food, 20% of the remaining income on travelling, and 35% of the remaining income on clothes, and still saves ₹70,720 per year. What is the annual income (in) of Sandeep?
This problem requires us to calculate Sandeep's total annual income. We are given information about the percentages he spends on different items from his income and the final amount he saves. The key is to track the remaining income after each expenditure.
Let the total annual income of Sandeep be represented by the variable \( I \).
Sandeep spends 32% of his annual income on food. This means he has \( (100\% - 32\%) = 68\% \) of his income left.
Income remaining after food = \( I \times (1 - 0.32) \) = \( 0.68I \)
He then spends 20% of the *remaining* income (which is \( 0.68I \)) on travelling. So, the income left after travelling is \( (100\% - 20\%) = 80\% \) of \( 0.68I \).
Income remaining after travelling = \( 0.68I \times (1 - 0.20) \) = \( 0.68I \times 0.80 \) = \( 0.544I \)
Next, Sandeep spends 35% of the *further remaining* income (which is \( 0.544I \)) on clothes. The income left after buying clothes is \( (100\% - 35\%) = 65\% \) of \( 0.544I \).
Income remaining after clothes (Savings) = \( 0.544I \times (1 - 0.35) \) = \( 0.544I \times 0.65 \)
Income remaining after clothes = \( 0.3536I \)
We are told that Sandeep still saves ₹70,720 per year. This amount represents the final remaining income after all expenses.
Therefore, we can set up the equation: \( 0.3536I = 70,720 \)
To find Sandeep's total annual income, we need to solve the equation for \( I \):
\( I = \frac{70,720}{0.3536} \)
Performing the division:
\( I = 200,000 \)
Based on the calculations, Sandeep's total annual income is ₹2,00,000.
A person, while trading the shares of a particular company, observes that its price has gone down by 10% from the previous day. In anticipation of increment on the next day, he holds it for the next day. But the share price further falls down by another 8% of the previous day. Then he sells his shares and gets ₹12,420. How much could he have saved had he sold it the previous day?
