Annual Rate of Interest Offered by Two Finance Companies Over the Years.
An investor invested a sum of Rs. 12 lakhs in Company P in 1998. The total amount received after one year was re-invested in the same Company for one more year. The total appreciation received by the investor on his investment was?
Rs. 296,200
Rs. 242,200
Rs. 225,600
Rs. 216,000
Correct answer is C
Amount received from Company P after one year (i.e., in 199) on investing Rs. 12 lakhs in it
= Rs. [12 + (8% of 12)] lakhs
= Rs. 12.96 lakhs.
Amount received from Company P after one year on investing Rs. 12.96 lakhs in the year 1999
= Rs. [12.96 + (10% of 12.96)] lakhs
= Rs. 14.256.
Appreciation received on investment during the period of two years
= Rs. (14.256 - 12) lakhs
= Rs. 2.256 lakhs
= Rs. 2,25,600.
