Q:

Mr. Gupta borrowed a sum of money on compound interest. What will be the amount to be repaid if he is repaying the entire amount at the end of 2 years?

I. The rate of interest is 5 p.c.p.a.

II. Simple interest fetched on the same amount in one year is Rs. 600.

III. The amount borrowed is 10 times the simple interest in 2 years.

A) I only B) III only
C) I or II only D) .II and Either I or III only
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) .II and Either I or III only

Explanation:

 

 

I. gives, Rate = 5% p.a.

 

II. gives, S.I. for 1 year = Rs. 600.

 

III. gives, sum = 10 x (S.I. for 2 years).

 

Now I, and II give the sum.

 

For this sum, C.I. and hence amount can be obtained.

 

Thus, III is redundant.

 

Again, II gives S.I. for 2 years = Rs. (600 x 2) = Rs. 1200.

 

Now, from III, Sum = Rs. (10 x 1200) = Rs . 12000.

 

Thus, Rate =

 

100 x 1200

 

= 5% p.a.

 

2 x 12000

 

Thus, C.I. for 2 years and therefore, amount can be obtained.

 

Thus, I is redundant.

 

Hence, I or III redundant.
