Correct Answer: Rs. 3,000
Solution : Given, Average monthly expenditure for the first 4 months = Rs. 2,300 $\therefore$ Total expenditure for the first 4 months = 4 × 2,300 = Rs. 9,200 Average monthly expenditure for the next 8 months = Rs. 1,800 $\therefore$ Total expenditure for the next 8 months = 8 × 1,800 = Rs. 14,400 Annual savings = Rs. 12,400 $\therefore$ Total expenditure for the year = 9,200 + 14,400 = Rs. 23,600 So, Monthly income = $\frac{\text{Total expenditure + Annual savings}}{12}$ = $\frac{23600 + 12400}{12}$ = $\frac{36000}{12}$ = Rs. 3,000 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 3,000.
