b) 11%

c) 12.5%

d) Can’t be determined

Question 10: A sum of money was invested at a certain rate for 2 years. Had it been invested at 3% higher rate of interest, it would have fetched Rs. 450 more. The sum invested was—

a) Rs. 7500

b) Rs. 600

c) Rs. 5000

d) Rs. 4500

We know that simple interest is same for every year. We have been given that he earned 2500 in 2.5 years.
Hence, he must be earning 1000 in interest every year. Thus, the initial amount invested by him must be 8000 – 2000 = 6000
Thus, the rate of interest must be 1000*100/6000 = 16.67 %

Since it is compounded half yearly, there are 4 time periods with a rate of 5%.

Amount = $10000*[1.05]^4 = 12155.06$ ~ 12155

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

He gets 16800 from the second bank which offers a simple interest of 10 percent per annum. Let us assume that he deposited x with second bank.
Hence
x*1.2 = 16800
=> x = 14000
Hence, he must have got 14000*2 = 28000 from the first bank.
Let P be the original sum that he deposited in the bank. Hence, we have
P*.8*5 + P = 28000
=> 1.4P = 28000
=> P = 28000/1.4 = 20000

Let us assume that Mukesh deposited x in second bank. So at the end of 2 years it will become 1.21x in bank 2.
Now he must have invested 30000 – x in bank 1.
The interest earned will be (30000 – x)*.12*2 = .24*30000 – .24x = 7200 – .24x
Hence, the amount will be 7200 – .24x + 30000 – x = 37200 – 1.24x
We have been given that 1.21x = 37200 – 1.24x
=> 2.24x = 37200
=> x = 16607.14
Hence, option B is the correct answer.

The principal in the bank with simple interest is Rs. 20,000/2 = Rs. 10,000
Interest earned = 10,000 * 2 * 10% = Rs. 2,000

The principal in the bank with compound interest is Rs. 20,000/2 = Rs. 10,000
Interest earned = $10,000 * 1.1^2$ – 10,000 = Rs. 2,100

Total interest earned = 2,000 + 2,100 = Rs. 4,100

Let $x$ be the sum of money invested at simple interest and $r$ be the rate of interest.

The interest at the end of 2 years=$P$x$t$x$r/100=2xr$ -(1)

The interest at the end of 2 years if $r$ is increased by 3%=$2x(r+3)$ -(2)

Given (2)-(1)=450

=>$6x=450$

∴$x= 7500$

Each of their share is proportional to the product of the investment and the time period. Since the share is the same for both

A’s investment x time = B’s investment x time

ie 10000 x 9 = 18000 x time

So, time = 5 months

Simple Interest = 1000*3*10/100 = Rs 300
Compound Interest = $1000(1+10/100)^3 -1000$ = 1331 – 1000 = Rs 331
Hence, Simple Interest would be lesser by Rs 31.

Let the principal be P.
Hence, his interest from first investment is P*10.5*2/100 = 21P/100.
From the second investment, his interest = $P(1+x/100)^2 – P$
As these two are equal, 21P/100 =$P(1+x/100)^2 – P$
Cancelling principal on both sides,
$(1+x/100)^2$ = 121/100
Taking square root
1+x/100 = 11/10
x=10%.
