Solutions:


1. Reqd Difference,
= (19-11/100) x 120000 = 9600



2. Reqd percentage,
= 10200/120000 x 100 = 8.5%



3. Estimated cost of furniture and miscellaneous expenditures
(13+8/100) x 120000 = 25200
Actual cost of Furniture,
88/100 x 13/100 x 120000 = 13728
Actual cost of furniture and miscellaneous expenditure
= 13728 + 10200 = 23928
Total expenditure of the family
= 120000 – 25200 + 23928 = 118728



4. Reqd Estimated cost,
(15+14/100) x 120000 = 34800



5. Amount spent on furniture,
88/100 x 13/100 x 120000 = 13728
