Q:

A man bought 20 shares of Rs. 50 at 5 discount, the rate of dividend being 13 $\frac{1}{2}$ . The rate of interest obtained is:

A) 13%	B) 12
C) 15%	D) 16%

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 15%

Explanation:

Investment = Rs. [20 x (50 - 5)] = Rs. 900.

Face value = Rs. (50 x 20) = Rs. 1000.

Dividend = $R s . (\frac{27}{2} * \frac{1000}{100}) = R s . 135$

Interest obtained = $\frac{135}{900} * 100$ % = 15%
