- Expenditure Calculation:

- First 3 months: Rs10,000 x 3 = Rs30,000

- Next 4 months: Rs12,500 x 4 = Rs50,000

- Last 5 months: Rs13,500 x 5 = Rs67,500

- Total expenditure for the year = Rs30,000 + Rs50,000 + Rs67,500 = Rs147,500

- Total Income Calculation:

- Total income = Total expenditure + Total savings

- Total income = Rs147,500 + Rs32,500 = Rs180,000

- Average Monthly Income Calculation:

- Average monthly income = Total income ÷ 12 months

- Average monthly income = Rs180,000 ÷ 12 = Rs15,000
