shape Q1

There is 50% increase in an amount in 5 years at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of Rs. 12,000 after 3 years at the same rate?
    A. Rs. 2255 B. Rs. 2792 C. Rs. 3580 D. Rs. 3972


In S.I,
Let P = 100, I = 50, T = 5 yrs
R = [latex]\frac {\frac {50}{100}}{\frac {100}{5}} [/latex] = 10%
In C.I,
P = 12000, T = 3 yrs, R = 10%
C.I = [latex][12000 × {(1 + \frac {10}{100})}^{3} – 1 ][/latex] C.I = 3972.

shape Q2

A man borrows 3000 rupees at 10% compound interest. At the end every year he pays rupees 1000 back. How much amount should he pay at the end of the fourth Year to clear all his debt?
    A. Rs. 680.5 B. Rs. 651.3 C. Rs. 751.3 D. Rs. 790.3


After one year amount = [latex]3000 × \frac {110}{100} = 3300[/latex]
He pays 1000 back, so remaining = 3300 - 1000 = 2300
After two year amount = [latex]2300 × \frac {110}{100} = 2530[/latex]
He pays 1000 back, so remaining = 2530 - 1000 = 1530
After three year amount = [latex]1530 × \frac {110}{100} = 1683[/latex]
He pays 1000 back, so remaining = 1683 - 1000 = 683
After fouth year = 683 × [latex]\frac {110}{100} = 751.3[/latex]

shape Q3

Rahul saves an amount of 800 every year and then lent that amount at an interest of 10 percent compounded annually. Find the amount after 3 years.
    A. Rs. 1822.8 B. Rs. 2252 C. Rs. 2550.50 D. Rs. 2912.8


800[latex]\times {(\frac {11}{10})}^{3} [/latex]= 1064.8
800 [latex]\times {(\frac {11}{10})}^{2} [/latex] = 968
800 [latex]\times (\frac {11}{10})[/latex] = 880
Total amount = 2912.8

shape Q4

Find the compound interest at the rate of 8% for 3 years on that principal which in 3 years at the rate of 10% per annum gives 300 as simple interest.
    A. 180.515 B. 220.25 C. 259.712 D. 289.624


SI = 300
Per yr = 100
Rate = 10%
C.I = [latex] 1000 \times {(\frac {108}{100})}^{3}[/latex] - 1000
C.I = 259.712

shape Q5

The CI on Rs.6000 for 3 years at 8% for first year, 7% for second year, 6% for the third year will be
    A. Rs.1430 B. Rs.1530 C. Rs.1250 D. Rs.1350


A = [latex]6000 × \frac{108}{100} × \frac{107}{100} × \frac {106}{100}[/latex]
= 6000 × 1.08 × 1.07 × 1.06 = 7349.616 = 7350
CI = 7350 - 6000 = 1350
