Find the compound interest on Rs.16,000 at 20% per annum for 9 months, compounded quarterly

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 A

Explanation:

As per question we need something like following

\begin{aligned}
P(1+\frac{R}{100})^n > 2P \\
(1+\frac{20}{100})^n > 2 \\
(\frac{6}{5})^n > 2 \\
\frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5}\times\frac{6}{5} > 2

\end{aligned}

So answer is 4 years

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

S.I. on Rs 800 for 1 year = 40

Rate = (100*40)/(800*1) = 5%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
S.I. = \frac{1000*10*4}{100} = 400 \\
C.I. = [1000(1+\frac{10}{100})^4 - 1000] \\
= 464.10
\end{aligned}

So difference between simple interest and compound interest will be 464.10 - 400 = 64.10
