In 2012, Dhaka people work on an average 5.2 days in a week

Average income of the people of Dhaka city $1190 (2012)

No. of people in Dhaka city=12,797,394 (2012)

Per hour income = = 42.90 taka [$1=78 taka]

One person is losing= (42.90 taka/hour * 1.3 hour/day) = 55.77 taka/day

So, we are losing = (10,000,000 * 55.77) taka/day = 55.77 crore taka/day = 15,080.21 crore taka/year
