Answer:

The answer is $36,000.

Explanation:

If the average individual earns an annual salary of $60,000 and the government reduces all salaries and prices by 40%, then the salary of the average individual annualy decreases by $24,000 and comes down to $36,000 per year. But since the costs of services and prices of goods recude by 40% as well, it doesn't change the real salary.

I hope this answer helps.
