B Correct answer
Explanation

'Meagre' means very small or insufficient in quantity. When describing income that is inadequate to make purchases, 'meagre' is the precise term. 'Small' is too neutral, 'spare' means extra/unused, and 'scarce' typically describes resources in short supply, not someone's personal income.
