      Question

      An amount of Rs. 3,000 is invested for 2 years at a

      compound interest rate of 10% per annum. The interest gained is used to buy an item. If the item is then sold at a gain of 20%, determine its selling price.
      A Rs.756 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.591 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.654 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.712 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Compound interest earned = 3000 Γ— {1 + (10/100)}Β² – 3000

      = 3000 Γ— (1.1)Β² – 3000

      = 3000 Γ— 1.21 – 3000 = 3630 – 3000 = Rs. 630

      Selling price of the item = 630 Γ— 1.20 = Rs. 756
