Albert invested amount of 8000 in a fixed deposit for 2 years at compound interest rate of 5 % per annum. How much Albert will get on the maturity of the fixed deposit.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Please remember, when we have to calculate C.I. quarterly then we apply following formula if n is the number of years

\begin{aligned}
Amount = P(1+\frac{\frac{R}{4}}{100})^{4n}
\end{aligned}

Principal = Rs.16,000;
Time=9 months = 3 quarters;
Rate = 20%, it will be 20/4 = 5%

So lets solve this question now,

\begin{aligned}
Amount = 16000(1+\frac{5}{100})^3 \\
= 18522\\
C.I = 18522 - 16000 = 2522
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the amount Rs 100 for 1 year when compounded half yearly, n = 2, Rate = 6/2 = 3%

\begin{aligned}
Amount = 100(1+\frac{3}{100})^2 = 106.09
\end{aligned}

Effective rate = (106.09 - 100)% = 6.09%

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

As per question we need something like following

\begin{aligned}
P(1+\frac{R}{100})^n > 2P \\
(1+\frac{20}{100})^n > 2 \\
(\frac{6}{5})^n > 2 \\
\frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{6}{5}\times\frac{6}{5} > 2

\end{aligned}

So answer is 4 years

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of question we apply formula
\begin{aligned}
Amount = \frac{P}{(1+\frac{R}{100})^n} \\
Amount = \frac{169}{(1+\frac{4}{100})^2} \\
Amount = \frac{169 * 25 * 25}{26*26} \\
Amount = 156.25
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let Rate will be R%

\begin{aligned}
1200(1+\frac{R}{100})^2 = \frac{134832}{100} \\

(1+\frac{R}{100})^2 = \frac{134832}{120000} \\

(1+\frac{R}{100})^2 = \frac{11236}{10000} \\

(1+\frac{R}{100}) = \frac{106}{100} \\
=> R = 6\%
\end{aligned}
