Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are components of the compound interest formula A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ?

Show answer

A represents Amount, P represents Principal, r represents rate per annum, n represents number of years

In the formula A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ: A is Amount, P is Principal, r is rate per annum, and n is number of years (not months).

2multiple correct

Which statements are true about compound interest?

Show answer

The amount is given by A = P(1 + r/100)^n when interest is compounded yearly., For half-yearly compounding, the rate is divided by 2 and the number of years is multiplied by 2., For quarterly compounding, the rate is divided by 4 and the number of years is multiplied by 4., When the rates for succes

Compound interest uses a formula for yearly compounding, and the chapter also gives special forms for half-yearly and quarterly compounding. It further states that when successive yearly rates are different, the amount is found by multiplying the factors for each year. All four statements match these rules.

3multiple choice

In how many years will ₹1,600 amount to ₹1,944 at 10% compound interest?

Show answer

2 years

1944 = 1600(1.1)ⁿ → (1.1)ⁿ = 1.215 → (1.1)ⁿ = (1.1)² → n = 2 years

4multiple choice

What is the difference between CI and SI on ₹2,000 for 2 years at 5% per annum?

Show answer

₹5

CI = 2000[(1.05)² - 1] = 2000[1.1025 - 1] = ₹205. SI = (2000 × 5 × 2)/100 = ₹200. Difference = 205 - 200 = ₹5
