    1. ₹ 18000
    2. ₹ 12000
    3. ₹ 16000
    4. ₹ 20000
Correct Option: A

Total profit = ₹ 60000
Amount reinvested in business
= 40% of ₹ 60000 = ₹ 24000
Remaining amount of the profit
= 60% of ₹ 60000 = ₹ 36000
Bonus to employees
= 30% of ₹ 36000 = ₹ 10800
Donation for charity
= 20% of ₹ 36000 = ₹ 7200
Amount spent on advertisement
= ₹ (36000 – 10800 – 7200) = ₹ 18000
