    If 4% of income tax is paid by me, my net income is Rs.5,76,000. What will be my net income if income tax is raised to 8%.
    Question

    If 4% of income tax is paid by me, my net income is Rs.5,76,000. What will be my net income if income tax is raised to 8%.

    A.

    Rs.5,25,000

    B.

    Rs.5,00,000

    C.

    Rs.5,52,000

    D.

    Rs.5,67,000

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Net Income after 4% tax = ₹5,76,000
    Tax Rate (initially) = 4%
    Tax Rate (after increase) = 8%

    Concept Used:

    Net Income Formula: Net Income = Gross Income×(1−Tax Rate)

    Solution:
    Let I be the gross income

    Net income = I - 0.04I = 0.96I

    0.96I = 576000 

    I=560000.96\text{I} =\frac{56000}{0.96}​​

    I = 600000

    If the tax is raised to 8%, the new net income will be:

    Net income = I - 0.08I = 0.92I = 0.92÷600000=Rs. 552,000\text{I - 0.08I = 0.92I = 0.92} \div 600000 = \text{Rs. } 552,000​​
