Correct Answer: Rs 4158
Correct Answer: 7%
Correct Answer: Rs.2522
Explanation:
Principal = Rs.16,000;
Time=9 months = 3 quarters;
Amount
=Rs.[16000x(1+5/100)³] =[16000x21/20x21/20x21/20]
= Rs.18522.
C.I
= Rs.(18522 - 16000)
= Rs.2522.
Correct Answer: 2.04
Explanation:
C.I. when interest
compounded yearly=rs.[5000*(1+4/100)(1+1/2*4/100)]
= Rs. 5304.
C.I. when interest is
compounded half-yearly=rs.5000(1+2/100)^3
= Rs. 5306.04
Difference = Rs. (5306.04 - 5304) = Rs. 2.04
Correct Answer: 2years
Explanation:
Amount = Rs. (30000 + 4347) = Rs. 34347.
Let the time be n years.
Then, 30000*(1+7/100)^n=34347
n= 2 years
