COMPOUND INTEREST



Ans .

612


  1. Explanation :

    Amount = Rs [7500*\((1+(4/100)^2\)] = Rs (7500 * (26/25) * (26/25)) = Rs. 8112.

    therefore, C.I. = Rs. (8112 - 7500) = Rs. 612.





Ans .

3109


  1. Explanation :

    Time = 2 years 4 months = 2(4/12) years = 2(1/3) years.

    Amount = Rs'. [8000 X \((1+(15/100))^2\) X (1+((1/3)*15)/100)]

    =Rs. [8000 * (23/20) * (23/20) * (21/20)] = Rs. 11109. .

    C.I. = Rs. (11109 - 8000) = Rs. 3109.





Ans .

824.32


  1. Explanation :

    Principal = Rs. 10000; Rate = 2% per half-year; Time = 2 years = 4 half-years.

    Amount = Rs [10000 *\( (1+(2/100))^4\)]

    = Rs(10000 * (51/50) * (51/50) * (51/50) * (51/50)) = Rs. 10824.32.

    C.I. = Rs. (10824.32 - 10000) = Rs. 824.32.





Ans .

2522


  1. Explanation :

    Principal = Rs. 16000; Time = 9 months =3 quarters;Rate = 20% per annum = 5% per quarter.

    Amount = Rs. [16000 x \((1+(5/100))^3\)] = Rs. 18522.

    CJ. = Rs. (18522 - 16000) = Rs. 2522





Ans .

1261


  1. Explanation :

    Clearly, Rate = 5% p.a., Time = 3 years, S.I.= Rs. 1200

    So principal=RS [100*1200]/3*5= RS 8000 Amount = Rs. 8000 x \([1 +5/100]^3\)= Rs. 9261.

    C.I. = Rs. (9261 - 8000) = Rs. 1261.





Ans .

3 yrs


  1. Explanation :

    Principal = Rs. 1000; Amount = Rs. 1331; Rate = 10% p.a. Let the time be n years.

    Then, [ 1000 (1+ \((10/100))^n\) ] = 1331 or \((11/10)^n\) = (1331/1000) = \((11/10)^3\)

    n= 3 years.





Ans .

8% p.a.


  1. Explanation :

    Principal = Rs. 500; Amount = Rs. 583.20; Time = 2 years.

    Let the rate be R% per annum.. 'Then, [ 500 \((1+(R/100)^2\) ] = 583.20 or \([1+ (R/100)]^2\) = 5832/5000 = 11664/10000

    \([ 1+ (R/100)]^2\) = \((108/100)^2\) or 1 + (R/100) = 108/100 or R = 8

    So, rate = 8% p.a.





Ans .

1080


  1. Explanation :

    Let the sum be Rs. x.

    Then, C.I. = [ x * (1 + \(( 50/(3*100))^3\) - x ] = ((343x / 216) - x) = 127x / 216

    127x /216 = 1270 or x = (1270 * 216) / 127 = 2160.

    Thus, the sum is Rs. 2160 S.I. = Rs ( 2160 * (50/3) * 3 * (1 /100 ) ) = Rs. 1080.





Ans .

Rs.63,100.


  1. Explanation :

    Let the sum be Rs. x. Then,

    C.I. = x \(( 1 + ( 10 /100 ))^2\)- x = 21x / 100 , S.I. = (( x * 10 * 2) / 100) = x / 5

    (C.I) - (S.I) = ((21x / 100 ) - (x / 5 )) = x / 100

    Hence, the sum is Rs.63,100.





Ans .

15%.


  1. Explanation :

    Let the rate be R% p.a.

    then, [ 18000 ( 1 + \(( R / 100 )^2\) ) - 18000 ] - ((18000 * R * 2) / 100 )

    = 405 18000 [ ( 100 + \((R / 100 )^2 \) / 10000) - 1 - (2R / 100 ) ]

    = 405 18000[( \((100 + R ) ^2\) - 10000 - 200R) / 10000 ]

    = 405 9\(R^2\) / 5 = 405 \(R^2\) =((405 * 5 ) / 9) = 225

    R = 15. Rate = 15%.





Ans .

Rs.676 and Rs.625.


  1. Explanation :

    Let the two parts be Rs. x and Rs. (1301 - x).

    x\((1+4/100)^7\) =\((1301-x)(1+4/100)^9\) x/(1301-x)=\((1+4/100)^2\)=(26/25*26/25) 625x=676(1301-x) 1301x

    =676*1301 x=676. So,the parts are rs.676 and rs.(1301-676)i.e rs.676 and rs.625.





Ans .

Rs.5400


  1. Explanation :

    S.I on rs.7350 for 1 year=rs.(8575-7350)=rs.1225.

    Rate=(100*1225/7350*1)%=16 2/3%

    Let the sum be rs.x.then, X\((1+50/3*100)^2\)=7350 X*7/6*7/6=7350

    X=(7350*36/49)=5400. Sum=rs.5400





Ans .

Rs.4460.


  1. Explanation :

    . Let the sum be rs.P.then P\((1+R/100)^3\)=6690 (i) and P\((1+R/100)^6\)=10035(ii)

    On dividing,we get \((1+R/100)^3\)=10025/6690=3/2.

    Substituting this value in (i),we get: P*3/2=6690 or P=(6690*2/3)=4460

    Hence,the sum is rs.4460.





Ans .

45 years


  1. Explanation :

    \(P(1+R/100)^15\)=2P \((1+R/100)^15\)=2P/P=2

    LET \(P(1+R/100)^n\)=8P

    \((1+R/100)^n\)=8=23=\(((1+R/100)^15))^3\)

    [USING (I)]

    \((1+R/100)^N\)=\((1+R/100)^45\) n=45.

    Thus,the required time=45 years





Ans .

Rs.3430


  1. Explanation :

    Let each installment beRs.x.

    Then,(P.W. of Rs.x due 1 year hence)+(P>W of Rs.x due 2 years hence)+(P.W of Rs. X due 3years hence)=7620.

    x/(1+(50/3*100))+ x/\((1+(50/3*100))^2\) + x/\((1+(50/3*100))^3\)=7620

    (6x/7)+(936x/49)+(216x/343)=7620.

    294x+252x+216x=7620*343.

    x=(7620*343/762)=3430.

    Amount of each installment=Rs.3430.
