  • Question
  • The true discount on a bill for Rs. 2520 due 6 months hence at 10 % per annum is :


  • Options
  • A. Rs. 180
  • B. Rs. 140
  • C. Rs. 80
  • D. Rs. 120

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 120 

    Explanation

    Given in the question,
    Face Value = 2520;
    Time = 6 months = 1/2 year
    Rate of interest = 10 %
    As we know the formula,
    True Discount = Face Value x ( Rate of Interest x Time in years ) / ( 100 + Rate of interest x Time )

    ? True Discount = 2520 x (10 x 1/2 ) / (100 + (10 x 1/2 ))
    ? True Discount = 2520 x ( 5 ) / (100 + ( 5 ))
    ? True Discount = 2520 x 5 /105
    ? True Discount = 2520 / 21
    ? True Discount = Rs. 120
