Answers:

1) Answer: b

Let the sum be Rs. P.

P[(12/10)³-1]=1456

P[(1728/1000)-1]=1456

P[728/1000]=1456

P=1456000/728 =2000

SI=PNR/100

=2000*6*10/100

= 1200

2) Answer:d

Let Rs. P be the required sum.

51516 = P (1 + 6/100) (1 + 8/100)

51516 =P (106/100) (108/100)

51516*(100/106)*(100/108) = P

P= 45000

Hence the required amount is Rs. 45000

3) Answer:a

Amount of money Kumar taken at S.I at 4% p.a. for two years = Rs.45000

He lend the same amount for C.I at 4% p.a. for two years

Kumar’s income = C.I – S.I

= p [1 + r/ 100]ⁿ – p – [pnr/100]

= p {[1 + r/ 100]² – 1} – [pnr/100

= 45000{[1+ (4/100)]²-1}-[45000*2*4/100]

= 45000{[104/100]²-1}- 3600

= 45000{[26/25)² – 1} – 3600

= 45000[676/625 – 1} – 3600

= 3672 – 3600

= Rs.72

4) Answer:c

Let the principal be x

According to the question,

X*7*2/100 +X*8*2/100 +X*9*4/100 = 15180

14X/100 + 16X/100+36X/100 = 15180

66X/100 = 15180

66X = 1518000

X =23000

Total amount end of the period = 15180 + 23000

= Rs. 38180

5) Answer:b

The difference between S.I and C.I together on a certain sum for 2 years is,

Diff = Sum*(r/100)²

4 = Sum*(5/100)²

4*25/(100*100) = Sum

Sum = Rs. 1600

6) Answer:d

Given P = Rs.18000

Amount = 22579.20

n = 2years

Let the rate be R% per annum. Then

(1+R/100)² = 18000 / 22579.20

(1+R/100)² = (28/25)²

1+R/100 = 28/25

(100+R)/100 = 28/25

100+R = 2800/25

100+R = 112

R = 12 %

7) Answer:a

For the 1st year interest will be,
= > 35000*(20/100) = Rs. 7000
35000+7000+35000 = 77000
= > 77000*(20/100) = 15400
77000+ 15400+ 35000 = 127400
= > 127400*(20/100) = 25480
127400 + 25480 + 35000 = 187880
= > 187880*(20/100) = 37576
187880 + 37576 = Rs. 225456

8) Answer:b

Given P = Rs.12350;   n=6 months = 2 quarters

R=3% per quarter

Amount = Rs [p(1+R/100)ⁿ]

=Rs. [12350(1+3/100)²]

=Rs. [12350(103/100)²]

=Rs. [12350*103/100*103/100]

=Rs. (12350*1.03*1.03)

=Rs.13102.115

Compound interest = amount – principal

=Rs. (13102.115 – 12350)

=Rs. 752.115

(or)

12350*(3/100) = Rs. 370.5

12720.5*(3/100) = Rs. 381.615

C.I = 370.5 + 381.615 = Rs. 752.115

9) Answer:c

Amount = P(1+r/100)ⁿ

2704 = P(1+4/100)²

P = Rs [2704/ (1+4/100)²]

P =Rs. (2704 / (104/100)²]

P =Rs. (2704 *(100/104) * (100/104)]

P =Rs. (27040000/10816)

P =Rs. 2500

10) Answer:c

Amount = P (1+R/100)ⁿ

=4000(1+10/100)²

=4000(110/100)²

=4000*110/100*110/100

=40*11*11

=Rs.4840

Hence the required answer is Rs. 4840
