Answer a) 43500
Explanation:
Net salary = Basic salary + Total allowance – Total deduction
Total deduction = PF deduction (10% of basic salary) + Other deductions
= 10% of 21800 + 4720 = 2180 + 4720 = Rs.6900
Net salary = 21800 + 28600 – 6900 = Rs.43500

Answer d) 16600
Explanation:
Let the basic salary of Q be X.
Total allowance of Q is Rs.(X + 3000).
Net salary = Basic salary + Total allowance – Total deduction
25850 = X + X + 3000 – 4350
=>2X = 25850 + 4350 – 3000
=>X = 27200/2 = 13600
Total allowance of Q = 13600 + 3000 = Rs.16600

Other deduction of S = 13/7 * 1120 = Rs.2080

Answer c) 32900
Explanation:
Total deduction of T = PF deduction + 4000
Let basic salary of T be X.
then, 5700 = 10% of X + 4000
=>X/10 = 1700 =>X = 17000
Net salary = 17000 + 21600 – 5700 = 38600 – 5700 = 32900.
