      A 18,700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 22,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 25,200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 14,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ;

      Amount initially spent by P on rent = 24000 X 0.35 = Rs. 8,400

      Increased amount spent on Rent = 8400 + 600 = Rs. 9,000

      Amount initially spent by P on food = Rs. 2,000

      Increased amount spent on food = 2000 X 1.15 = Rs. 2,300

      Increased income of P = 24000 X 1.25 = Rs. 30,000

      So, new savings of P = 30000 - (9000 + 2300) = Rs. 18,700
