A man saves Rs 200 at the end of each year and lends the money at 5% compound interest. How much will it become at the end of 3 years.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the amount Rs 100 for 1 year when compounded half yearly, n = 2, Rate = 6/2 = 3%

\begin{aligned}
Amount = 100(1+\frac{3}{100})^2 = 106.09
\end{aligned}

Effective rate = (106.09 - 100)% = 6.09%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
[200(1+\frac{5}{100})^3 + 200(1+\frac{5}{100})^2+ \\ 200(1+\frac{5}{100})]

= [200(\frac{21}{20} \times \frac{21}{20} \times \frac{21}{20})\\
+ 200(\frac{21}{20}\times\frac{21}{20})+200(\frac{21}{20})] \\

= 662.02
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Principal = Rs.1000;
Amount = Rs.1331;
Rate = Rs.10%p.a.

Let the time be n years then,

\begin{aligned}
1000(1+\frac{10}{100})^n = 1331 \\

(\frac{11}{10})^n = \frac{1331}{1000} \\

(\frac{11}{10})^3 = \frac{1331}{1000} \\

\end{aligned}
So answer is 3 years

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
C.I. = (4000 \times(1+\frac{10}{100})^2 - 4000) \\
= 4000 * \frac{11}{10} * \frac{11}{10} - 4000 \\
= 840 \\

\text{So S.I. = } \frac{840}{2} = 420\\

\text{So Sum = } \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T} \\
= \frac{420 * 100}{3*8} \\
= Rs 1750
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Please remember, when we have to calculate C.I. quarterly then we apply following formula if n is the number of years

\begin{aligned}
Amount = P(1+\frac{\frac{R}{4}}{100})^{4n}
\end{aligned}

Principal = Rs.16,000;
Time=9 months = 3 quarters;
Rate = 20%, it will be 20/4 = 5%

So lets solve this question now,

\begin{aligned}
Amount = 16000(1+\frac{5}{100})^3 \\
= 18522\\
C.I = 18522 - 16000 = 2522
\end{aligned}
