    A Rs.3250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.3200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.4580 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.3000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Amount spent by Ramesh in 2019 = 40000 × 0.5 = Rs. 20,000

    Amount saved by Ramesh in 2019 = 40000 - 20000 = Rs. 20,000

    Income of Ramesh in 2020 = 40000 × 1.1 = Rs. 44,000

    Amount spent by Ramesh in 2020 = 20000 + 1000 = Rs. 21,000

    So, amount saved by Ramesh in 2020 = 44000 - 21000 = Rs. 23,000

    Increase in savings as compared to 2019 = 23000 - 20000 = Rs. 3,000
