Q:

A man invests Rs.5000 for 3 years at 5% p.a. compound interest reckoned yearly. Income tax at the rate of 20% on the interest earned is deducted at the end of each year. Find the amount at the end of the third year

A) Rs.5624.32 B) Rs.5423
C) Rs.5634 D) Rs.5976
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs.5624.32

Explanation:

 

 

 

5% is the rate of interest. 20% of the interest amount is paid as tax.

 

i.e  80% of the interest amount stays back.

 

 if we compute the rate of interest as 80% of 5% = 4% p.a., we will get the same value.

  

The interest accrued for 3 years in compound interest = 3 x simple interest on principal + 3 x interest on simple interest + 1 x interest on interest on interest.

 

= 3 x (200) + 3 x (8) + 1 x 0.32 =600 + 24 + 0.32 = 624.32

 

 

 

The amount at the end of 3 years = 5000 + 624.32 = 5624.32

Q:

If you deposit $4000 into an account paying 6% annual interest compounded quarterly, how much money will be in the account after 5 years ?

A) 3387.42 B) 4387.42
C) 5387.42 D) 6387.42
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 5387.42

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for calculating compound interest depends on several factors. These factors include the amount of money deposited called the principal, the annual interest rate (in decimal form), the number of times the money is compounded per year, and the number of years the money is left in the bank.

 FV=p1+rnnt

 

FV = Future value of the Deposit

 

p = Principal or Amount of Money deposited

 

r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal form )

 

n = No of times compounded per year

 

t = time in years

FV=40001+0.0644(5)= 5387.42

Q:

Rs.1200 divided among P, Q and R. P gets half of the total amount received by Q and R. Q gets one-third of the total amount received by P and R. Find the amount received by R ?

A) Rs. 1100 B) Rs. 500
C) Rs. 1200 D) Rs. 700
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 500

Explanation:

Let the amounts to be received by P, Q and R be p, q and r.
p + q + r = 1200
p = 1/2 (q + r) => 2p = q + r

Adding 'p' both sides, 3p = p + q + r = 1200
=> p = Rs.400

q = 1/3 (p + r) => 3q = p + r

Adding 'q' both sides, 4q = p + q + r = 1200
=> q = Rs.300

r = 1200 - (p + q) => r = Rs.500.

Q:

In a Plane there are 37 straight lines, of which 13 pass through the point A and 11 pass through the point B. Besides, no three lines pass through one point, no lines passes through both points A and B , and no two are parallel. Find the number of points of intersection of the straight lines.

A) 525 B) 535
C) 545 D) 555
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 535

Explanation:

The number of points of intersection of 37 lines is C237. But 13 straight lines out of the given 37 straight lines pass through the same point A.

 

Therefore instead of getting C213 points, we get only one point A. Similarly 11 straight lines out of the given 37 straight lines intersect at point B. Therefore instead of getting C211 points, we get only one point B.

 

 Hence the number of intersection points of the lines is C237-C213-C211 +2 = 535

Q:

Rahul went to purchase a Nokia mobile handset, the shopkeeper told him to pay 20% tax if he asked the bill. Rahul manages to get the discount of 5% on the actual saleprice of the mobile and he paid the shopkeeper Rs. 3325 without tax. Besides he manages to avoid to pay 20% tax on the already  discounted price, what is the amount of discount that he has gotten?

A) 750 B) 375
C) 875 D) 525
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 875

Explanation:

CP = 100, SP (with tax) =120

 

New   SP = 100 - 5 = 95

 

 Effective discount = 120 - 95 = 25 

 

So, at SP of 95 ----> discount = 25

 

and      at SP of 3325 -----> discount = 2595×3325 = 875

S.I for 1year =Rs.400

S.I for Rs.400 for one year =Rs.32

rate=[100*32)/(400*1)%=8%

difference between in C.I and S.I for 3rd year
