If the difference between CI and SI on the same sum for 2 years at the rate of 15% is Rs. 225 then find the sum?

  2. Rs. 12,500
  3. Rs. 5,000
  4. Rs. 10,000
  5. None of these

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : Rs. 10,000

GIVEN:

⇒ Time = 2 years.

⇒ Rate = 15%

⇒ Compound interest – Simple interest = Rs. 225

FORMULA USED:

⇒ S.I = (P x R x T) /100

⇒ C.I = P [1+ (R / 100)]T – P

CALCULATION:

⇒ S.I = (P x 15 x 2)/100

⇒ S.I = 0.30P

⇒ C.I = P [1+ (15/100) ]2 – P

⇒ C.I = P [(529/400) – 1]

⇒ C.I = P [(129/400)]

⇒ C.I = 0.3225P

⇒ Difference = C.I – S.I

⇒ C.I – S.I = 0.0225P

⇒ C.I – S.I = Rs. 225

⇒ 0.0225P = Rs. 225

⇒ P = Rs. 10,000

On rs 2500 /- for two years at a 10% rate compounded annually the difference between ci & si is
 

Let Principle = 100%

⇒ T = 2 years    &   Rate = 15%

⇒ S.I = 30% of P

⇒ S.I = 30%

For C.I we have to calculate effective rate.

⇒ Effective rate = 15 + 15 + (15 x 15)/100

⇒ Effective rate = 32.25%

⇒ C.I = 32.25%

⇒ Difference = 2.25%

⇒ 2.25% = Rs 225

⇒ 1% = Rs. 100

⇒ P = 100% = Rs. 10,000

15 Questions 15 Marks 8 Mins

Given: 

The principal = Rs. 2500

Rate of interest = 12%

Time = 2 years

Concept: 

SI = (P × R × T)/100

CI = P[(1 + r/100)n – 1]

Here, n is the number of terms in the year.

Calculation: 

The simple interest for 2 years

⇒ (2500 × 12 × 2)/100

⇒ 25 × 12 × 2

⇒ Rs. 600 

Now, Compound interest for 2 years is 

⇒ 2500[(1 + 12/100)2 – 1]

⇒ 2500[(112/100)2 – 1]

⇒ 2500 × (28/25)2 – 2500

⇒ 2500 × (784/625) – 2500

⇒ 3136 – 2500

⇒ Rs. 636

Now, The difference between CI and SI is

⇒ Rs. 636 – Rs. 600

⇒ Rs. 36

∴ The difference between CI and SI is Rs. 36. 

Alternate Method

The difference between CI and SI for 2 years is P(r/100)2

The  difference is 

⇒ 2500(12/100)2

⇒ 2500 × 144/10000

⇒ Rs. 36

∴ The difference between CI and SI is Rs. 36.

What is the amount and the compound interest on 2500 for 2 years at 10% per annum compounded annually?

∴ Amount will be Rs. 3025 and Interest will be Rs. 525 If Compounded Annually.

What is the difference between the compound interest and simple interest on 2500 for 2 years at 4% per annum?

= 2704 - 2500 = Rs. 204 C.I. - S.I.

What is the compound interest on rupees 2500 for 2 years at rate of interest for percent per annum?

Detailed Solution 2,500 in 2 years and Rs. 3,000 in 3 years at certain rate of compound interest. ⇒ R = 20% p.a. ∴ Rate of interest is 20% p.a..

What does 10% compounded annually mean?

For example, say you have $100 in a savings account, and it earns interest at a 10% rate, compounded annually. At the end of the first year, you'd have $110 ($100 in principal + $10 in interest).
