Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

machine value after 2 year=Rs.10240

Rate of depreciation=20%
Let the original value of the machine=Rs.x
Value after 2 year=Present value$\left(1-\frac{R}{100}\right)^T$
$\Rightarrow 10240=x\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)^2$
$\Rightarrow 10240=x\times \frac{80}{100}\times \frac{80}{100}$
$\Rightarrow x=\frac{10240\times 100\times 100}{80\times 80}=Rs.16000$

  2. Rs. 2,279

  3. Rs. 2,506

  4. Rs. 2,792
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$Sum=Rs.13500$

$Rate=16%$
Amount at the end of first year$=P\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^T$

$\Rightarrow 13500\left(1+\dfrac{16}{100}\right)$

$\Rightarrow 13500\times \dfrac{116}{100}=Rs.15660$

For the second year

$Sum=Rs.15660$

Then amount after second year$=15660\left(1+\dfrac{16}{100}\right)$

$\Rightarrow 15600\times \dfrac{116}{100}=Rs.18165.6$

$\therefore$ Interest for second year$=18165.6-15660=Rs.2505.6=Rs.2506$

A sum of money placed out at compound interest amounts to Rs. 20,160 in 3 years and to Rs. 24,192 in 4 years. Calculate amount in 2 years.

  1. Rs. 12,500

  2. Rs. 16,800

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Amount in three year $=Rs. 20160$


Amount in four year $=Rs.24192$

Interest in 1 year $=24192-20160=Rs.4032$

Let the rate of interest $=R$%

C.I fir 1 year=S.I for 1 year$=\frac{PRT}{100}$

$\Rightarrow 4032=\dfrac{20160\times R\times 1}{100}$

$\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{4032\times 100}{20160\times 1}=20$%

Amount in 3 years $=$ Rs. $20160$

Let the sum be x
$\therefore 20160=x \left(1+\dfrac{20}{100} \right)$

$\Rightarrow 20160=x\times \dfrac{120}{100}$

$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{20160\times 100}{120}=Rs.16800$

Hence the amount in $2$ year is Rs. $16800.$

  2. Rs. 17,036.80

  3. Rs. 18,036.80

  4. Rs. 19,036.80
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Principal $=Rs.12800$

Rate of interest $=10$%
Time $=3$ years

$Amount=P\left(1+\dfrac{R}{100}\right)^T$

$\Rightarrow A=12800\left(1+d\dfrac{10}{100}\right)^3$

$\Rightarrow \ A= 12800\times \dfrac{110}{100}\times \dfrac{110}{100}\times \dfrac{110}{100}=Rs. 17036.80$

  2. $Rs. 1007.77$
  3. $Rs. 1000$
  4. $Rs. 1100$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Rate of interest=$\frac{Difference  in  interest  of  two  consecutive periods\times 100}{C.I  of  preceding year\times Time}\times 100$

$\Rightarrow \frac{933.12-864}{864\times 1}\times 100$
$\Rightarrow \frac{69.12}{864}\times 100=8$%

C.I for the forth year=$933.12+8\% of 933.12$
$\Rightarrow 933.12+\frac{8}{100}\times 933.12$
$\Rightarrow 933.12+74.65=Rs.1007.77$

Find the amount of Rs. $  8000$ for $3$ years, compounded annually at $10 \%$ per annum. Also, find the compound interest.

  1. $2648$
  2. $2640$
  3. $2348$
  4. $2216$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Here, $P=$ Rs. $8000,R=10\%$ per annum and $n=3$ years

Using the formula, $A=P\left (1+\dfrac {R}{100}\right)^n$
Amount after $3$ years $=8000\times \left (1+\dfrac {10}{100}\right)^3$
$=8000\times \dfrac {11}{10}\times \dfrac {11}{10}\times \dfrac {11}{10}$
$=10648$
Thus, amount after $3$ years $=$ Rs. $1648$.
And compound interest $=$ Rs. $(10648-8000)=2648$.

If the present value of my investment is Rs. $2,000$ and the rate of interest is $5\%$ compounded annually, what will the value be after $5$ years?

  1. $2341.12$
  2. $1348.90$
  3. $2552.56$
  4. $3129.10$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Given, Principal $P=2,000, r=5\%, n=5$ years

We know the formula of compound interest,
$A = P\left (1+\dfrac {r}{100}\right)^n$
$ = 2000\left (1+\dfrac{5}{100}\right)^5$
$ = 2000\left (1+\dfrac{5}{100}\right)^5$
$ = 2000 \times 1.05^5$
$ =$ Rs. $2552.56$

The principal that amounts to Rs. $4913$ in $4\dfrac{1}{2}$ years at $6\%$ per annum compound interest, compounded annually, is

  1. $3179.81$
  2. $3579.81$
  3. $3779.81$
  4. $3979.81$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

We know the formula,
$A = P\left (1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{n.t}$
Given, $A =$ Rs. $4913$, $ r = 6\%$, $n = 4$ and $t =$ $4\dfrac{1}{2}$ years
Therefore, $4913 = P\left (1+\dfrac{0.06}{1}\right)^{1\times 4.5}$
$\Rightarrow 4913 = P\times 1.06^{4.5}$
$\Rightarrow 4913 = P\times 1.2998$
$\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{4913}{1.2998}$
$\Rightarrow P =$ Rs. $3779.81$

On what sum will the compound interest for $4\dfrac{1}{2}$ years at $10\%$ amount to Rs. $4620$?

  1. $2008.67$
  2. $3008.67$
  3. $4008.67$
  4. $5008.67$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know the formula,
$A = P\left (1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{n.t}$
Given, $A =$ Rs. $4620$, $r = 10\%$, $n = 1$ and $t =$ $4\dfrac{1}{2}$ years
Therefore, $4620 = P\left (1+\dfrac{0.1}{1}\right)^{1\times 4.5}$
$\Rightarrow 4620 = P\times 1.1^{4.5}$
$\Rightarrow 4620 = P\times 1.535561$
$\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{4620}{1.535561}$
$\Rightarrow P =$ Rs. $3008.67$

What will a deposit of Rs. $3,500$ at $10\%$ compounded monthly be worth if left in the bank for $5\dfrac{1}{2}$ years?

  1. $1552.45$
  2. $2552.45$
  3. $3552.45$
  4. $4552.45$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know the formula,
$A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{n.t}$
Given, $P =$ Rs. $3500$, $r = 10\%$, $n = 12$ and $t =$ $5\dfrac{1}{2}$ years
Therefore, we have $A = 3500\left (1+\dfrac{0.1}{12}\right)^{12\times 5.5}$
$\Rightarrow A = 3500\times 1.008^{66}$
$\Rightarrow A = 3500\times 1.72927$
$\Rightarrow A = 6052.45$
To find interest we use formula $A = P + I$, since $A = 6052.45$ and $P = 3500$, we have:
$A = P + I$
$\Rightarrow 6052.45 = 3500 + I$
$\Rightarrow I = 6052.45 - 3500 = 2552.45$
Interest, $I =$ Rs. $2552.45$
