A bill for Rs 2725.25 was drawn on 03-06-2010 and made payable 3 months after due date. It was discounted on 15-6-2010 at 16% per annum. What is the discounted value of the bill and how much did the banker gain?

Answer»

Given F = 2725.25, r = 0.16, DV = ?, BG = ?, DD = 03-6-2010, BP 

= 3 months 

∴ L.D.D = DD + BD + 3days 

= 6-9-2010. 

t = No. of days from 15th June to 6th Sept = June + July + August + September 

= 15 +31 +31 + 6 = 83 days = \(\frac{83}{365}\) years 

Discounted value = F (1 – tr) 

= 2725.25 (1 – \(\frac{83}{365}\) × 0.16) = 2725.25 (1 – 0.036) 

DV = 2627.14 

BD = F – Discounted value = 2725.25 – 2627.14 = 98.10 

TD = \(\frac{BD}{1 + tr}\) = \(\frac{98.10}{1.036}\) = 94.69 

BG = BD – TD = 98.10 – 94.69 = 3.41
