Question 8: A sum of Rs16800 is divided into two parts. One part is lent at the simple interest of 6% per annum and the other at 8% per annum. After 2 years total sum received is Rs19000. The sum lent at 6% of simple interest is

a) Rs12200
b) Rs12000
c) Rs11000
d) Rs10000
e) None of these

Question 9: Find SI if P = Rs. 1000, R = 20% per annum and duration is 4 years

a) Rs. 400
b) Rs. 600
c) Rs. 800
d) Rs. 850
e) None of these

Question 10: The effective annual rate of interest corresponding to a nominal rate of 6% per annum payable half-yearly is:

a) 6.10%
b) 6.11%
c) 6.08%
d) 6.09%
e) None of these

Compound Interest after 2 years = 1414.4

$P(1+\frac{8}{100})^2 – P$ = 1414.4

=> $P(1.08)^2 – P$ = 1414.4

=> 0.1664P = 1414.4

=> P = 8500

Therefore amount = 8500 + 1414.14 = 9914.14

Let principal amount be Rs. x.
(x×9×2)/100 + (x×9.5×2)/100 = 14800
or (0.18+0.19) = 14800
X = 14800/0.37 = Rs. 40000

Scheme I of company E
CI = 120000 [(1+ 9/100)^2- 1]
= 120000 [((109×109)/(100×100)-1)]
= 120000 × 1881/10000 = Rs. 22572
Scheme IV of company A
SI = (120000×2×10)/100 = Rs. 24000
Difference = 24000 – 22572 = Rs. 1428

25000 × 109.5/100 = 27375
And again, 27375 × 109/100 = Rs. 29838. 75

Interest earned by Abhishek = 45000 × (1+ 8/100)^2- 45000
= 45000 × 27/25 × 27/25 = 45000
= 52488 – 45000 = 7488

Interest earned by Jeevan = (45000×10.5×2)/100 = 9450
Required difference = 9450 – 7488 = 1962
Hence, Jeevan earned Rs. 1962 more.

(30000×9.5×2)/100 + (48000× 109/100× 109/100- 48000) = 5700 + (57028.8 – 48000)
= 5700 + 9028.8 = Rs. 14728.80

SI = $\frac{7300 6 2}{100}$ = 876
CI = 7300[1 + $\frac{6}{100}$]2 – 7300 = 902.28
Difference = Rs26.28

Let x be the amount lent for 6%
16800 – x is the amount lent for 8%
$\frac{2×6}{100}$ + $\frac{2(16800-x)8}{100}$ + 16800 = 19000
x = 12200

Amount of Rs.100 for 1 year when compounded half-yearly = Rs.$[100\times(1+3/100)^2 ]$=Rs.106.09
