    A)  Rs. 4000                      

    B)  Rs. 6600

    C)  Rs. 8000                      

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Here, none of the statement is correct. Let initial salary = Rs. 22x First salary = Rs. 25x Let initial number of employees = 3y Final number of employees = 2y \[\therefore \]Present bill = Final salary \[\times \] Final number of employees \[\Rightarrow \]   \[5000=25x\times 2y\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{5000}{50}=xy\Rightarrow xy=100\] Original bill = Initial salary x Initial number of employees \[=22x\times 3y=66xy=66\times 100\]= Rs. 6600
