Solution

a) Revenue receipts = revenue expenditure - revenue deficit = 11000 - 6000 = 5000
b) Fiscal deficit = revenue deficit + ( capital expenditure - non debt creating capital receipts ) = 6000 +(14000 - 8000) = 6000 + 6000 =12000
c) Primary deficit = fiscal deficit - interest payments = 12000 - 7000 = 5000
