Question 95

An investor invested Rs. 5 lakhs in Company Q in 2006. After one year, the entire amount along with the interest was transferred as investment to Company P in 2007 for one year. What amount will be received from Company P, by the investor?

Solution

Amount received from Company Q after one year on investment of Rs. 5 lakhs in the year 2006

= Rs. [5 + (6.5% of 5)] lakhs

= Rs. 5.325 lakhs.

Amount received from Company P after one year on investment of Rs. 5.325 lakhs in the year 2007

= Rs. [5.325 + (9% of 5.325)] lakhs

= Rs. 5.80425 lakhs

= Rs. 5,80,425.
