D Correct answer
Explanation

$\Rightarrow$  Cash price = Down payment + Present value of annuity    --- ( 1 )

$\Rightarrow$  Here, down payment is $\$100,000$, while we have annuity 10 terms i.e. $n$, deferred for $2\dfrac{1}{2}$ years i.e. 5 terms.
$\Rightarrow$  Each installment, $A = \$50,000$
$\Rightarrow$  Rate of interest, $r=10\%\, p.a.$ compounded half-yearly = 0.05
$\Rightarrow$  $m=5$ and $m+n=15$
$\therefore$  Present value of annuity,
$\Rightarrow$  $V=\dfrac{A}{r}\times [\dfrac{1}{(1+r)^m}-\dfrac{1}{(1+r)^{m+n}}]$
$\Rightarrow$  $\dfrac{50,000}{0.05}\times [(1.05)^{-5}-(1.05)^{-15}]$
$\Rightarrow$  $\$ 302509.07$
Now, from ( 1 )
$\Rightarrow$  Cash price of the flat = $\$100,000+\$302,509=\$402,509$

$P=Rs.1000,r=12\%,t=10$

$A=\sum _{ n=1 }^{ 9 }{ P{ (1+\cfrac { r }{ 100 } ) }^{ n }+P } \ =\sum _{ n=1 }^{ 9 }{ 1000{ (1+\cfrac { 12 }{ 100 } ) }^{ n }+1000 } \ =3000\times 16.548\ =Rs.17548$

A machine costing Rs $2$ lacs has effective life of $7$ years and its scrap value is Rs $30000$. What amount (in Rs) should the company put into a sinking fund earning $5\%$ per annum so that it can replace the machine after its useful life? Assume that a new machine will cost Rs $3$ lacs after $7$ years.

  2. $33101.35$
  3. $33161.35$
  4. $33111.35$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$\Rightarrow$  Cost of new machine is $Rs.3\,lacs$

$\Rightarrow$  Scrap value of old machine is $Rs.30000$
$\Rightarrow$  Hence, money required for new machine after 7 years  = $Rs.300000-Rs.30000=Rs.270000$.
$\Rightarrow$  If A is the annual deposit into sinking fund, then we have
$\Rightarrow$  Amount of annuity, $M=Rs.270000$
$\Rightarrow$  Number of periods = $7\, years$
$\Rightarrow$  $r=5\%=0.05$
$\therefore$   $M=\dfrac{A}{r}\times [(1+r)^n - 1]$
$\Rightarrow$  $270000=\dfrac{A}{0.05}\times[(1.05)^7-1]$

$\Rightarrow$  $A=\dfrac{270000\times 0.05}{(1.05)^7 - 1}$

$\therefore$   $A=33161.35$ Rs

  2. $102875$

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

We know that formula of present value is 

$V=\cfrac{A}{r}[\cfrac{1}{(1+\cfrac{R}{100})^m}$$-\cfrac{1}{(1+\cfrac{R}{100})^{m+n}}]$
We have  annuity of $8$ terms $(n)$
For $4$ terms $(m)\implies m=4\ \implies m+n=12$
$V=\cfrac{25000}{0.06}[\cfrac{1}{(1+\cfrac{6}{100})^4}$$-\cfrac{1}{(1+\cfrac{6}{100})^{12}}]=Rs.122968.45$

A company borrows Rs 10000 on condition to repay it with compound interest at $5$% p.a . by annual instalments at Rs 1000 each. In how many years will the debt be paid off?

  1. 14.2

  2. 21.7

  3. 12.67

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
$\Rightarrow$  Company borrow Rs.10000 i.e. $pv=Rs.10000$ and $I=5\%=0.05$. $A$ is also given which is $Rs.1000$
$\Rightarrow$  Present value of annuity regular
$\Rightarrow$  $pv=A\times [\dfrac{(1+I)^n-1}{I\times (1+I)^n}]$

$\Rightarrow$  $10000=1000\times [\dfrac{(1+0.05)^n-1}{0.05\times (1+0.05)^n}]$

$\Rightarrow$  $(1.05)^n-0.5\times (0.5)^n=1$
$\Rightarrow$  $(1.05)^n=2$
Taking log both sides
$\Rightarrow$  $n=\dfrac{log\,2}{log\, 1.05}$
$\therefore$   $n=14.2\, years$

Mr Dev purchased a car paying Rs $90,000$ and promising to pay Rs 5000 every 3 months for the next 10 years. The interest is $6$% p.a. compounded quarterly. If at the end of 5th year , he wants to finish his liability by a single payment , how much should he pay?

  1. 90100

  2. 80100

  3. 34504

  4. 54345

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

$\Rightarrow$  We have $A=Rs.5000,\,I=\dfrac{6}{100}\times \dfrac{1}{4}=0.015$ and $n = 20$

$\Rightarrow$  If at the end of 5th year, i.e., at the time of 20th payment, he wants to finish off the liability, then lump sum payment required is,
$\Rightarrow$  $5000$ + Present value of the remaining 20 installments.
$\Rightarrow$  $5000+V$
$\Rightarrow$  $5000$ + $\dfrac{A}{I}[1-(1+I)^{-n}]$

$\Rightarrow$  $5000+\dfrac{5000}{0.015}[1-(0.015)^{-20}]$    ---- ( 1 )

$\Rightarrow$  Let $x=(1.015)^{-20}$
$\Rightarrow$  $log\,x=-20\,log\,(1.015)$
$\Rightarrow$  $log\,x=-20(0.0064)=-0.128=\bar{1}.8720$
$\Rightarrow$  $x=antilog\,(\bar{1}.8720)=0.7447$
Substitute value of $x$ in ( 1 ),
$\Rightarrow$  $5000+\dfrac{5000}{0.015}(1-0.7447)$

$\Rightarrow$  $5000+\dfrac{5000}{0.015}\times 0.2553$

$\Rightarrow$  $Rs.90100$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Present value $=Rs.50,000Rs.20,000=Rs.30,000$

$P=\cfrac{A}{(1+\cfrac{R}{100})^n}$

$\implies 30,000=\cfrac{A}{1+(\cfrac{15}{100})}$$+\cfrac{A}{1+(\cfrac{15}{100})^2}+.....$4
$ \implies A\times 5,847 $
