From the following equation estimate disposal income (Y) when consumption (C) is Rs. 910.
C=Rs. 160+0.75Y$ _d$

  1. Rs. 1100

  2. Rs. 900

  3. 1000

  4. 800

C Correct answer
Explanation

Using the equation C = 160 + 0.75Yd, substitute C = 910: 910 = 160 + 0.75Yd. Then 750 = 0.75Yd, so Yd = 750 / 0.75 = 1000.

From the following equation estimate Income (Y) consumption is Rs.1000 is _______.
C=Rs. 200+0.80Y$ _d$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Using C = 200 + 0.80Yd, substitute C = 1000: 1000 = 200 + 0.80Yd. Then 800 = 0.80Yd, so Yd = 800 / 0.80 = 1000.
