Question 117

If the average monthly salary of employees in Administration was Rs 12,000 in 2005, what was the approximate total Salary expense of Administration in 2005?

Solution

Average Salary in Administration = $$\ \frac{\ Total\ Salary\ }{Total\ number\ of\ People}$$

Total number of people on Administration = $$22\%\ of\ 18,000\ =\ 3,960$$

Hence $$12,000\ =\ \frac{\ Total\ Salary}{3,960}$$

Total Salary = $$12,000\times\ 3960\ =\ 47520000$$ = $$4.7\ crores$$
