If Mrs Ditiro's budget for transport, clothes and social expenses is R5 000,00, show by calculation that she can afford to invest R2 000,00 for her children per month.
To show that Mrs. Ditiro can afford to invest R2,000.00 for her children per month, we need to subtract her expenses (transport, clothes, and social expenses) from her budget of R5,000.00.
Let's calculate:
Total expenses = Transport + Clothes + Social expenses
Let's assume Mrs. Ditiro spends R1,000.00 on transport, R1,500.00 on clothes, and R1,500.00 on social expenses.
Then the total expenses would be:
Total expenses = R1,000.00 + R1,500.00 + R1,500.00 = R4,000.00
Now, let's calculate the amount Mrs. Ditiro can afford to invest for her children per month:
Investment amount = Budget - Total expenses
Investment amount = R5,000.00 - R4,000.00 = R1,000.00
From the calculation, it shows that Mrs. Ditiro can afford to invest R1,000.00 for her children per month.
However, in the question, it is mentioned that she can afford to invest R2,000.00 for her children per month. This means there is a discrepancy between the budget and the amount mentioned in the question. To be able to invest R2,000.00 as mentioned, Mrs. Ditiro would need to adjust her budget or find additional sources of income.
