Q:

# If the simple interest on a sum of money for 2 years at 5% per annum is Rs. 50, what is the compound interest on the same at the same rate and for the same time

 A) Rs.51.25 B) Rs.61.25 C) Rs.51 D) Rs.42

Explanation:

Sum = Rs.(50*100)/2*5=Rs.500

Amount=Rs.[500*(1+5/100)2]

= Rs. 551.25

C.I = Rs.(551.25-500)= Rs.51.25

Q:

Simple interest on a certain sum at 7% per annum for 4 years is Rs. 2415. What will be the compound interest on the same principal at 4% per annum in two years?

 A) Rs. 704 B) Rs. 854 C) Rs. 893 D) Rs. 914

Explanation:

We know that,

From given data, P = Rs. 8625

Now, C.I  =

Q:

Find the compound interest on Rs. 6,500 for 4 years if the rate of interest is 10% p.a. for the first 2 years and 20% per annum for the next 2 years?

 A) Rs. 3845 B) Rs. 4826 C) Rs. 5142 D) Rs. 4415

Explanation:

We know the formula for calculating

The compound interest  where P = amount, r = rate of interest, n = time

Here P = 5000, r1 = 10, r2 = 20

Then

C = Rs. 4826.

Q:

What is the difference between the compound interests on Rs. 5000 for 11⁄2 years at 4% per annum compounded yearly and half-yearly?

 A) Rs. 1.80 B) Rs. 2.04 C) Rs. 3.18 D) Rs. 4.15

Explanation:

Compound Interest for 1 12 years when interest is compounded yearly = Rs.(5304 - 5000)

Amount after 112 years when interest is compounded half-yearly

Compound Interest for 1 12 years when interest is compounded half-yearly = Rs.(5306.04 - 5000)

Difference in the compound interests = (5306.04 - 5000) - (5304 - 5000)= 5306.04 - 5304 = Rs. 2.04

Q:

The difference between simple interest and compound interest of a certain sum of money at 20% per annum for 2 years is Rs. 56. Then the sum is :

 A) Rs. 3680 B) Rs. 2650 C) Rs. 1400 D) Rs. 1170

Explanation:

We know thatThe Difference between Compound Interest and Simple Interest for n years at R rate of interest is given by

Here n = 2 years, R = 20%, C.I - S.I = 56

Q:

Find the compound interest on Rs. 2680 at 8% per annum for 2 years ?

 A) Rs. 664.21 B) Rs. 548.68 C) Rs. 445.95 D) Rs. 692.57

Explanation:

We know Compound Interest = C.I. = P1+r100t - 1

Here P = 2680, r = 8 and t = 2

C.I. = 26801 + 81002-1= 268027252-12= 26802725+12725-1= 2680 5225×225

= (2680 x 52 x 2)/625

= 445.95

Compound Interest = Rs. 445.95

Q:

The compound interest on Rs. 8000 for 3 year at 10% p.a. is

 A) 2648 B) 2145 C) 2587 D) 2784

Explanation:

8000 × 33.1% = 2648

Q:

Compound interest on a certain sum of money at 20% per annum for 2 years is Rs.5995. What is the SI on the same money at 8% per annum for 6 years ?

 A) Rs. 5989 B) Rs. 6540 C) Rs. 7844 D) Rs. 6789

Explanation:

Given C.I = 5984, R = 20% , T = 2yrs

5984 = $\inline \fn_jvn \small C.I=P\left [ \left ( 1&amp;plus;\left ( \frac{20}{100}\right )^{2} \right )-1 \right ]$

=> P = (5995x25)/11

P = Rs. 13625

Now S.I = PTR/100

SI = (13625 x 8 x 6)/100 = Rs. 6540

Q:

At a certain rate of interest the compound interest of 3 years and simple interest of 5 years for certain sum of money is respectively Rs. 1513.2 and Rs. 2400. Find the common rate of interest per annum ?

 A) 5% B) 6% C) 4% D) 3%

Explanation:

Given compound interest for 3 years = Rs. 1513.2

and simple interest for 5 years = Rs. 2400

Now, we know that  C.I =

=> 1513.2 =  ...........(A)

And S.I = PTR/100

=> 2400 = P5R/100 ..................(B)

By solving (A) & (B), we get

R = 5%.
