Q:

The market value of a 10.5% stock, in which an income of Rs. 756 is derived by investing Rs. 9000, brokerage being $\frac{1}{4}$ % is :

A) Rs.108.25	B) Rs.112.20
C) Rs.124.75	D) Rs.125.25

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs.124.75

Explanation:

For an income of Rs.756, investment = Rs.9000

For an income of Rs. $\frac{21}{2}$ , investment = $R s . (\frac{9000}{756} * \frac{21}{2})$ = Rs.125

For a Rs.100 stock, investment = Rs.125.

Market value of Rs. 100 stock = $R s . (125 - \frac{1}{4})$ = Rs. 124.75
