      Question

      Rs. 95Y invested for 2 years at simple interest of 16%

      p.a., yields an interest of Rs. 3040. If Rs. 115Y is invested for 2 years at compound interest (compounded annually) of 7% p.a., then find the amount received.
      A RS.5000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.7526 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.6922 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, (95Y Γ— 2 Γ— 16) Γ· 100 = 30.4Y = 3040 So, Y = 3040 Γ· 30.4 = 100 And so, sum invested at compound interest = 115Y = 115 Γ— 100 = Rs. 11,500 So, required amount received = 11,500 Γ— {(1 + (7/100))}Β² = 11,500 Γ— 1.07Β² = Rs. 13,167.
