Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The correct choice is: “Rs. 1200”

Total monthly income of the family = 5 × 1000 = Rs. 5000.

An increase of Rs. 12,000 per year = 12,000 ÷ 12 = Rs. 1000 per month. New total monthly income = 5000 + 1000 = Rs. 6000.

New average monthly income per person = 6000 ÷ 5 = Rs. 1200.
