Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : Rs. 6250 Given: Principal Amount = Rs.12200 Rate of interest = 25% Three equal annual instalment means (Time) = 3 years Formula: A = P × (1 + R/100)n Here, A = Amount P = Principal Amount R = Rate of interest n = time in year IA = I × (1 + R/100)t Here, IA = Instalment Amount I = Instalment R = Rate of interest t = (n – 1)year, (n – 2)year, …….. Here, n = time in years Calculation: We know that – A = P × (1 + R/100)n ……. (1) Put all the given values in equation (1) A = 12200 × (1 + 25/100)3 ⇒ 12200 × (1 + 1/4)3 ⇒ 12200 × (5/4)3 ⇒ 12200 × 125/64 Now, Let the instalment be Rs.y Instalment Amount (IA) for three years means = (n – 1)year + (n – 2)year +(n – 3)year We know that – IA for (n – 1)year = I × (1 + R/100)n ….. (2) Put all the given values in equation (2) then we get IA for (n – 1)year = y × (1 + 25/100)2 ⇒ y × (1 + 1/4)2 ⇒ y × (5/4)2 ⇒ 25y/16 Similarly, IA for (n – 2)year = y × (1 + 25/100)1 ⇒ y × (1 + ¼) ⇒ y × 5/4 ⇒ 5y/4 Now, IA for (n – 3)year = y × (1 + 25/100)0 ⇒ y × 1 ⇒ y Instalment Amount (IA) for three years = 25y/16 + 5y/4 + y ⇒ (25y +20y + 16y)/16 ⇒ 61y/16 Now, We equate the Amount (A) & Instalment Amount (IA) 12200 × 125/64 = 61y/16 ⇒ 200 × 125/4 = y ⇒ y = 50 × 125 ⇒ y = 6250 ∴ The Value of each instalment will be Rs.6250 |
