Q:

A shopkeeper who deals in books sold a book at 16% loss. Had she charged an additional Rs.60 while selling it , her profit would have been 14%. Find the cost price, in rupees, of the book ?

A) Rs. 185	B) Rs. 154
C) Rs. 200	D) Rs. 177

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 200

Explanation:

Let the C.P be 'x'
Then, the selling price S.P = x - 16x/100
= 84x/100 = 21x/25
Now, if the S.P is 60 more, then the profit is 14%
=> 21x/25 + 60 = x + 14x/100
=> 114x/100 - 21x/25 = 60
=> (57 - 42)x/50 = 60
=> 15x/50 = 60
x = 3000/15 = 200

Therefore, the Cost price C.P = x = Rs. 200

Q:

The least number of complete years in which a sum of money put out at 20% compound interest will be more than doubled is:

A) 3	B) 4
C) 5	D) 6

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4

Explanation:

$P {(1 + \frac{20}{100})}^{n} > 2 P \Leftrightarrow {(\frac{6}{5})}^{n} > 2$

$(\frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5}) > 2$

so, answer is 4 years

Q:

At a certain rate of interest the compound interest of 3 years and simple interest of 5 years for certain sum of money is respectively Rs. 1513.2 and Rs. 2400. Find the common rate of interest per annum ?

A) 5%	B) 6%
C) 4%	D) 3%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5%

Explanation:

Given compound interest for 3 years = Rs. 1513.2

and simple interest for 5 years = Rs. 2400

Now, we know that C.I = $[P {(1 + \frac{R}{100})}^{n} - 1]$

=> 1513.2 = $[P {(1 + \frac{R}{100})}^{3} - 1]$ ...........(A)

And S.I = PTR/100

=> 2400 = P5R/100 ..................(B)

By solving (A) & (B), we get

R = 5%.
