Q:

The banker's gain on a bill due 1 year hence at 12% per annum is Rs. 6. The true discount

is:

A) 62 B) 58
C) 47 D) 50

Answer:   D) 50



Explanation:

T.D. =(B.G. x 100)/ (R x T)= Rs. (6 x 100)/( 12 x 1) = Rs. 50.

Q:

If the true discount on a certain sum due 6 months hence at 15% is Rs. 120, what is the banker's discount on the same sum for the same time and at the same rate?

A) 50 B) 129
C) 100 D) 160
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 129

Explanation:

B.G. = S.I. on T.D.

          = Rs.(120 x 15 x 1/2 x 1/100)

  = Rs. 9.

(B.D.) - (T.D.) = Rs. 9.

 

B.D. = Rs. (120 + 9) = Rs. 129.
