The laptop charger costs Rs. 2,540 in cash. The installment option requires a down payment of Rs. 1,340 and a second payment of Rs. 1,205 after one month. The extra amount paid is Rs. 5 (Rs. 1,205 - Rs. 1,200). Simple Interest (SI) = Rs. 5 Principal (P) =2540-1340 = Rs. 1,200 Time (T) = 1/12 years Using the formula SI = PXRXT /100 we get: 5 = (1,200×R×1)/ 12×100 R = 5%
