(i) Total deduction = Provident Fund Deduction (which is 10% of basic salary) + other deductions
(ii) Net salary = Basic salary + Total allowance - Total deduction
(iii) Few values are missing in the table (indicated by). A candidate is expected to calculate the missing value, if it is required to answer the given question, on the basis of the given data and information.
16. If other deductions of A were Rs. 9440, then what was his net salary?   
a) Rs. 92500
b) Rs. 83500
c) Rs. 87000
d) Rs. 91500
e) Rs. 92000
Answer: (c)
Explanation:  We know that,
Net salary = Basic salary + Total allowance - Total deduction
Total deduction = PF deduction (10% of basic salary) + other deduction
= 10% of 43600 + 9440 = 4360 + 9440 = 13800
Net salary = 43600 + 57200 - 13800 = Rs. 87000 
17. If B’s total allowance was Rs. 6000 more than his basic salary, what was his total allowance? 
a) Rs. 37000
b) Rs. 37500
c) Rs. 36000
d) Rs. 36600
e) Rs. 33200
Answer: (e)
Explanation: Let the basic salary of B be Rs. x
 Total allowance of B is Rs. (x + 6000)
Net salary = Basic salary + Total allowance - Total deduction
 25850 = x + x + 6000 - 8700
 51700 = 2x - 1350  2x = 25850 + 1350
 2x = 54400
 x = Rs. 27200
 Total allowance of B is 27200 + 6000 = Rs. 33200.
18. If the respective ratio of Provident Fund deduction and other deductions of D was 7 : 13, then what was D’s other deduction? 
a) Rs. 4160
b) Rs. 4080
c) Rs. 4120
d) Rs. 4160 
e) Rs. 3980
Answer: (d)
Explanation: Let the PF deduction and other deduction of D be 7x and 13x
It is given that, 10% of 22400 = PF deduction
 10/100×22400 = PF deduction
 PF deduction = Rs. 2240
 Other deduction of D =13x/7x×2240 = Rs. 4160
20. Basic salary of D is approximately what per cent more than the basic salary of C? 
a) 8%
b) 9%
c) 10%
d) 12%
e) None of these
Answer: (a)
Explanation:
20. If other deductions of E were Rs. 8000, what was his net salary? 
a) Rs. 72500
b) Rs. 72900
c) Rs. 69700
d) Rs. 72700
e) Rs. 65800 
Answer: (e)
Explanation: Total deduction of T = PF deduction + 8000
Let the basic salary of T be Rs. x
So, 11400 = 10% of x + 8000
 x/10 = 11400 - 8000
 x/10=3400
 x = Rs. 34000
Net salary = 34000 + 43200 - 11400 = 38600 - 5700 = Rs. 65800
