Solution

The correct option is C ₹2160
Cost of a haircut = ₹400

Average number of haircuts in a day = 20

Total charge of haircuts = 400 $\times$ 20 = ₹8000

GST on Haircut = 18%

Total GST collected for haircut

= $\frac{18}{100} \times 8000$ = ₹1440

Cost of a shave = ₹200

Average number of shaves in a day = 30

Total charge of shaves = 200 $\times$ 30 = ₹6000

GST on Shave = 12%

Total GST collected for shave

= $\frac{12}{100} \times 6000$ = ₹720

Total GST collected by Barber per day on an average = ₹1440 + ₹720 = ₹2160.
