A400,00,000
B300,00,000
C500,00,000
D550,00,000

correct answer is: option c [500,00,000]
Explanation: Let the expenditure of Electricity and Training in 2019 be x.
The expenditure in 2020 is decreased by 40% from 2019. Therefore, the 2020 expenditure is 60% of the 2019 expenditure which is given 300,00,000.
So, 0.6x = 300,00,000.
Solving for x, x = 300,00,000 / 0.6 = 500,00,000
