Income of a man is 30% more than his expenditure. When the income is increased by 10% and expenditure is decreased by 10%, then what is the change percentage in the savings of the man? Correct Answer 76.67%
Let the expenditure of the man be Rs. 100
Then, the income of the man = (130/100) × 100 = 130
∴ Savings of the man
Income – Expenditure = Saving
⇒ 130 – 100 = 30
Now, income of the man is increased by 10% and expenditure is decreased by 10%
∴ New Income = 130 × (110/100) = 143
New Expenditure = 100 × (90/100) = 90
∴ New savings = New Income – New Expenditure
⇒ New savings = 143 – 90 = 53
∴ Percentage change = {(53 – 30)/30} × 100 = 76.67%
