Q:

The difference between Simple Interest and Compound Interest at the rate of 12% on the same amount for 3 years is Rs. 112.32. What is the principal amount if interest is compounded annually?

A) Rs. 25000 B) Rs. 2500
C) Rs. 50000 D) Rs. 5000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 2500

Explanation:

Let the principal amount be Rs. x
Calculating SI:
SI for 1 year at 12% rate is Rs (12/100)*x. For 3 years it will be Rs (36/100)*x ------ (1)
Calculating CI:
For 1st year, Interest = (12/100)*x
For 2nd year, interest = (12/100)*x + (12/100)*x + (144/10000)*x
For 3rd year, interest = (12/100)*x + (12/100)*x + (12/100)*x + (144/10000)*x + (144/10000)*x + (1728/1000000)*x. ------ (2)
Subtracting equation 2 and 1 and solving further,
312*144*x/1000000 = 112.32
X = Rs 2500.
Alternative way: Using formula for Difference
between CI and SI for 3 years

we can also use the above formula to find the value of P.

Q:

The perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 6 m more than its breadth is 84 m. What will be the area of the rectangle?

A) 333 sq.mts B) 330 sq.mts
C) 362 sq.mts D) 432 sq.mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 432 sq.mts

Explanation:

Let the breadth of the rectangle = b mts

Then Length of the rectangle = b + 6 mts

Given perimeter = 84 mts

2(L + B) = 84 mts

2(b+6 + b) = 84

2(2b + 6) = 84

4b + 12 = 84

4b = 84 - 12

4b = 72

b = 18 mts

=> Length = b + 6 = 18 + 6 = 24 mts

 

Now, required Area of the rectangle = L x B = 24 x 18 = 432 sq. mts

Cost price of A be x and cost price of B be y.

x= 1000/1.1 = 909.09

B sold for Rs. 1000 on 10% loss = 0.9y =1000y= 1000/0.9 = 1111.11

Total cost price of A and B = 2020.20

Selling price of A and B = 2000

Loss % = (2020.20 –2000)/2000 X 100

= 1.01 % loss
