- 'A' alone can complete the work in 16 days for Rs 48,100. Thus, daily earnings for 'A' are 48,100 / 16 = Rs 3,006.25.

- With the assistant, the work is completed in 12 days. The combined daily wage for both is 48,100 / 12 = Rs 4,008.33.

- Calculate the assistant's contribution: Rs 4,008.33 (combined) - Rs 3,006.25 ('A's daily wage) = Rs 1,002.08 (assistant's daily wage).

- Total wage for the assistant: Rs 1,002.08 * 12 = Rs 12,024.96, rounded to Rs 12,00.

Option 4: Rs 12,00 is correct.
