What annual payment will discharge a debt of Rs.7620 due in 3years at 1623 % per annum interest?

Correct Answer: 3430

Explanation:

Let each installment be Rs.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 3 years hence) = 7620.


 


x 1 + 50 3 x 100 + x 1   + 50 3 x 100 2 + x 1   + 50 3 x 100 3   =   7620


 


  6 x 7 + 36 x 49 + 216 x 343 = 7620


 


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


 


 => x = 3430


 


 Amount of each installment = Rs.3430
