A certain sum is invested for 2 years in scheme M at 20% p.a. compound interest (compounded annually), Same sum is also invested for the same period in scheme N at k% p.a. simple interest. The interest earned from scheme M is twice of that earned from scheme N. What is the value of k?

A) 7 B) 11
C) 9 D) 13

Explanation:

Interest earned in scheme M =   

P1 + 201002  - 1  = 11P25

Interest earned in scheme N =  

P x k x 2100 = Pk50

 

Now, from the given data,

 

11P25 = 2 x Pk50

k = 11
