The monthly reading of a Consumer's meter are as follow : Maximum demand = 50 kW Energy consumed = 36,000 kWh, Reactive energy = 23,400 KVAR. If the tariff is Rs. 80 per kW of maximum demand plus 8 paise per unit plus 0.5 paise per unit for each 1% of power factor below 86%, calculate the monthly bill of the consumer.
