      A ₹97,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B ₹99,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C ₹1,20,900 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D ₹1,06,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      For Scheme A (Simple Interest): Interest = P × R × T / 100 = 50,000 × 12 × 3 / 100 = ₹18,000. Amount from Scheme A = ₹50,000 + ₹18,000 = ₹68,000. For Scheme B (Compound Interest): Amount = P × (1 + R/100)^T = 40,000 × (1 + 15/100)^2 = 40,000 × (1.15)^2 = 40,000 × 1.3225 = ₹52,900. Total amount = ₹68,000 + ₹52,900 = ₹1,20,900.
