D.

Rs. 17,700

Correct option is B

Total income of 35 employees = 35 × K = 35K Total income after including the manager = 36 × 19000 = Rs. 684000 Income of the manager = Rs. 54000 So, 35K + 54000 = 684000 => 35K = 684000 - 54000 = 630000 => K = 630000 / 35 = Rs. 18000 Therefore, the value of K is Rs. 18000.
