Q:

What annual payment will discharge a debt of Rs.7620 due in 3years at $16 \frac{2}{3}$ % per annum interest?

A) 5430	B) 4430
C) 3430	D) 2430

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3430

Explanation:

Let each installment be Rs.x. Then,

(P.W. of Rs.x due 1 year hence) + (P.W of Rs.x due 2 years hence) + (P.W of Rs. X due 3 years hence) = 7620.

$[\frac{x}{(1 + \frac{50}{3 x 100})}] + [\frac{x}{1 + {(\frac{50}{3 x 100})}^{2}}] + [\frac{x}{1 + {(\frac{50}{3 x 100})}^{3}}] = 7620$

$\frac{6 x}{7} + \frac{36 x}{49} + \frac{216 x}{343} = 7620$

$294 x + 252 x + 216 x = 7620 x 343$

=> x = 3430

Amount of each installment = Rs.3430

Q:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs. 5000 ?

A) Rs. 5500	B) Rs. 6000
C) Rs. 6200	D) Rs. 6350

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 6000

Explanation:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs 5000 ?
Ratio of increase of wages = 22:25
Ratio of decrease of labourers = 15:11
Compound ratio of wages of labourers = 22 x 15 : 25 x 11 = 330:275
Final bill = Rs. 5000
For 275 ratio wages = Rs. 5000
For 1 ratio wages = 5000/275
For 330 ratio wages = 5000/275 x 330 = Rs. 6000
