Solution

Sure, let's break it down:

  1. First, let's calculate the increase in R's salary. If R got a 35% hike in his salary of Rs 70, the increase would be 35/100 * 70 = Rs 24.5. So, his new salary is 70 + 24.5 = Rs 94.5.

  2. Next, let's calculate the incentive on sales. Last year, R sold goods worth Rs 850 and got a 20% incentive, which is 20/100 * 850 = Rs 170.

  3. This year, R sold goods worth Rs 900. So, his incentive this year would be 20/100 * 900 = Rs 180.

  4. Last year, R's total earnings were his salary plus his sales incentive, which is 70 + 170 = Rs 240.

  5. This year, R's total earnings are his new salary plus his new sales incentive, which is 94.5 + 180 = Rs 274.5.

  6. Therefore, R earns Rs 274.5 - Rs 240 = Rs 34.5 more this year.
