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
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 2.04

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

How to find the years which have the same Calendars : 

 Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years. 

Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.

Now, the given year is 2018

We know that 2016 is a Leap year.

2016  2017  2018  2019  2020

 LY    1st     2nd    3rd    LY

Q:

A motorboat goes 8 km an hour in still water, but takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current than going with the current. Then find the speed of the current?

A) 4 kmph B) 6 kmph
C) 3 kmph D) 2 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4 kmph

Explanation:

Let the speed of current = 'C' km/hr

 

Given the speed of boat in still water = 6 kmph

 

Let 'd' kms be the distance it covers.

 

According to the given data,

 

Boat takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current than going with the current

 

i.e, d8 - C = 3 × d8 + C

 

 24 - 3C = 8 + C 4C = 16 C = 4 kmph

 

Hence, the speed of the current C = 4 kmph.

Q:

Jio is a big shot at reducing the cost of Internet access in India. The U.S., despite being the richest country in the world, lags far behind in terms of cost and penetration of Internet access. Cheap access to the Internet is an important step in bridging the access gap – access to good education, good healthcare, etc. But the market reaction to Jio is similar to the U.S. market’s reaction to firms announcing their intention to diversify.

(A) The final group of losers is the current shareholders of RIL. On announcement of Jio, the stock price of RIL fell.

(B) It shows that the market’s short-term reaction is usually proven correct in the long-run.

(C) On losing end, the first groups of losers are the shareholders of other telecom companies.

(D) The large amount of revenue the Government of India gets from auctioning off the nation’s natural resources is not necessarily a good thing because the Government does not have a stellar track record when it comes to spending the money. A large fraction of Government spending is wasted.

(E) The second loser is the Government of India. The big money the Indian Government was raking in selling cellular bandwidth was actually coming from the pockets of the cellular consumers. 

(F) The first obvious winners of this scheme are customers.

(G) The second winner is Mr. Ambani; he can potentially make a lasting impact as the man who brought Internet to millions of Indians.

 

Question:

Which of the following supports the decision of other companies opposing Reliance JIO Scheme?

A) Only A B) Both A & B
C) Only C D) Both C & E
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Both C & E

Explanation:

As the arguments C and E states that other companies are on the losing end with this scheme, it is the only appropriate answer to this question.
