Question
Rs. 5,000 is invested in scheme ‘A’ offering simple
interest of 16% p.a. and Rs. 6,600 in scheme ‘B’ offering simple interest of 9% p.a. What is the difference in interests earned from the two schemes after 3 years?Solution
Interest earned from scheme ‘A’ = (5000 × 3 × 16) ÷ 100 = Rs. 2400 Interest earned from scheme ‘B’ = (6600 × 3 × 9) ÷ 100 = Rs. 1782 So, difference in interest earned = 2400 – 1782 = Rs. 618
