A. Rs. 3359

B. Rs. 2500

C. Rs. 4000

D. Rs. 3212.5

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The total cost for the year
= 250000 + 2% of 2500000 + 2000
= Rs. 257000
For getting return of 15% he must earn
= $$\frac{{257000 \times 15}}{{100}}$$
= Rs. 38550 per year
Then, Monthly Rent
= $$\frac{{38550}}{{12}}$$
= Rs. 3212.5
