Question 1:
On what sum will the compound interest at 5% per annum for 2 years compounded annually be Rs 164?
ANSWER:
Let the sum be Rs x.
We know that:CI = A − P
= P(1 + R/100)n − P
= P[(1 + R/100)n − 1]
164 = x[(1 + 5/100)² − 1]
164 = x[(1.05)² − 1]
x = 164/0.1025
= 1,600
Thus, the required sum is Rs 1,600.

Question 2:
Find the principal if the interest compounded annually at the rate of 10% for two years is Rs 210.
ANSWER:
Let the sum be Rs x.
We know that:CI = A − P
= P(1 + R/100)n − P
= P[(1 + R/100)n − 1]
210 = x[(1 + 10/100)² − 1]
210 = x[(1.10)² − 1]
x = 210/0.21
= 1,000
Thus, the required sum is Rs 1,000.

Question 3:
A sum amounts to Rs 756.25 at 10% per annum in 2 years, compounded annually. Find the sum.
ANSWER:
Let the sum be Rs x.
Then,A = P(1 + R/100)n
= P[(1 + R/100)n]
756.25 = x[(1 + 10/100)²]
756.25 = x[(1.10)²]
x = 756.25/1.21 = 625
Thus, the required sum is Rs 625.

Question 4:
What sum will amount to Rs 4913 in 18 months, if the rate of interest is 12(1/2)% per annum, compounded half-yearly?
ANSWER:
Let the sum be Rs x.
Given: A = Rs 4913
R = 12.5%
n = 18 months = 1.5 years
We know that:A = P(1 + R/200)²n
4,913 = P(1 + R/200)²n
4,913 = x(1 + 12.5/200)³
4,913 = x[(1.0625)³]
x = 4,913/1.1995 = 4,096
Thus, the required sum is Rs 4,096.

Question 5:
The difference between the compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum at 15% per annum for 3 years is Rs 283.50. Find the sum.
ANSWER:
Given:CI − SI = Rs 283.50
R = 15%
n = 3 years
Let the sum be Rs x.
We know that:A = P(1 + R/100)n
= P(1 + R/100)n
= x(1 + 15/100)³
= x(1.15)³ ...(1)
Also,
= 0.45 x
A = SI + P = 1.45x ...(2)
Thus, we have:x(1.15)³ − 1.45x = 283.50 [From (1) and (2)]
1.523x − 1.45x = 283.50
0.070875x = 283.50
x = 283.50/0.070875 = 4,000
Thus, the sum is Rs 4,000.

Question 6:
Rachana borrowed a certain sum at the rate of 15% per annum. If she paid at the end of two years Rs 1290 as interest compounded annually, find the sum she borrowed.
ANSWER:
Let the money borrowed by Rachana be Rs x.
Then, we have:CI = P(1 + R/100)n − P
1,290 = x[(1 + 15/100)² − 1]
1,290 = x[0.3225]
x = 1,290/0.3225
= 4,000
Thus, Rachana borrowed Rs 4,000.

Question 7:
The interest on a sum of Rs 2000 is being compounded annually at the rate of 4% per annum. Find the period for which the compound interest is Rs 163.20.
ANSWER:
Let the time period be n years.
Then, we have:CI = P(1 + R/100)n − P
163.20 = 2,000(1 + 4/100)n − 2,000
2,163.20 = 2,000(1.04)n
(1.04)n = 2,163.20/2,000
(1.04)n = 1.0816
(1.04)n = (1.04)²
On comparing both the sides, we get:n = 2
Thus, the required time is two years.
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 8:
In how much time would Rs 5000 amount to Rs 6655 at 10% per annum compound interest?
ANSWER:
Let the time period be n years.
Thus, we have:CI = P(1 + R/100)n − P
6,655 = 5,000(1 + 10/100)n − 5,000
11,655 = 5,000(1.10)n
(1.1)n = 11,655/5,000
(1.1)n = 2.331(1.1)n = (1.1)³
On comparing both the sides, we get:n = 3
Thus, the required time is three years.
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 9:
In what time will Rs 4400 become Rs 4576 at 8% per annum interest compounded half-yearly?
ANSWER:
Let the time period be n years.
R = 8% = 4% (Half − yearly)
Thus, we have:A = P(1 + R/100)n
4,576 = 4,400(1 + 4/100)n
4,576 = 4,400(1.04)n
(1.04)n = 4,576/4,000
(1.04)n = 1.04
(1.04)n = 1.041
On comparing both the sides, we get: n = 1
Thus, the required time is half a year.
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 10:
The difference between the S.I. and C.I. on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 4% per annum is Rs 20. Find the sum.
ANSWER:
Given:CI − SI = Rs 20
P[(1.042 − 1)] − 0.08P = 20
0.0816 P − 0.08 P = 20
0.0016 P = 20
P = 20/0.0016
= 12,500
Thus, the required sum is Rs 12,500.

In what time will Rs 1000 amount to Rs 1331 at 10% per annum, compound interest?
ANSWER:
Let the time be n years.Then,A = P(1 + 10/100)n
1,331 = 1,000(1 + 10/100)n
(1.1)n = 1,331/1,000
(1.1)n = 1.331
(1.1)n = (1.1)³
On comparing both the sides, we get:n = 3
Thus, the required time is three years.
NO 14.20:
Question 12:
At what rate percent compound interest per annum will Rs 640 amount to Rs 774.40 in 2 years?
ANSWER:
Let the rate of interest be R%.
Then,A = P(1 + R/100)n
774.40 = 640(1 + R/100)²
(1 + R/100)² = 774.40/640
(1 + R/100)² = 1.21
(1 + R/100)² = (1.1)²
(1 + R/100) = 1.1
R/100 = 0.1
R = 10
Thus, the required rate of interest is 10% per annum.
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 13:
Find the rate percent per annum if Rs 2000 amount to Rs 2662 in 1.5 years, interest being compounded half-yearly?
ANSWER:
Let the rate of interest be R%.
Then,A = P(1 + R/100)n
2,662 = 2,000(1 + R/100)³
(1 + R/100)³ = 2,662/2,000
(1 + R/100)³ = 1.331
(1 + R/100)³ = (1.1)³
(1 + R/100) = 1.1
R/100 = 0.1
R = 10
Because the interest rate is being compounded half − yearly, it is 20% per annum.

Question 14:
Kamala borrowed from Ratan a certain sum at a certain rate for two years simple interest. She lent this sum at the same rate to Hari for two years compound interest. At the end of two years she received Rs 210 as compound interest, but paid Rs 200 only as simple interest. Find the sum and the rate of interest.
ANSWER:
Let the sum be Rs P and the rate of interest be R%.
We know that Kamla paid Rs 200 as simple interest.
∴ 200 = PR(2)/100
PR = 10,000 ...(1)
Also, Kamla received Rs 210 as compound interest.
∴ 210 = P(1 + R/100)² − 1
210(10,000) = P(R2 + 200R)
210R = R2 + 200R [from (1)]
R = 10% p.a.
Putting the equation in (1),
we get:P = 1,000
Thus, the required sum is Rs 1,000 and the rate of interest is 10%
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 15:
Find the rate percent per annum, if Rs 2000 amount to Rs 2315.25 in an year and a half, interest being compounded six monthly.
ANSWER:
Let the rate percent per annum be R.
Because interest is compounded every six months, n will be 3 for 1.5 years.
Now,A = P(1 + R200)n
2,315.25 = 2,000(1 + R/200)³
(1 + R/200)³ = 2,315.25/2,000
(1 + R/200)³ = 1.157625
(1 + R/200)³ = (1.05)³
1 + R/200 = 1.05
R/200 = 0.05
= 10
Thus, the required rate is 10% per annum.
PAGE NO 14.20:
Question 16:
Find the rate at which a sum of money will double itself in 3 years, if the interest is compounded annually.
ANSWER:
Let the rate percent per annum be R.
Then,A = P(1 + R/100)n2
P = P(1 + R/100)³
(1 + R/100)³ = 2
(1 + R/100) = 1.2599
R/100 = 0.2599
R = 25.99
Thus, the required rate is 25.99% per annum.
PAGE NO 14.21:
Question 17:
Find the rate at which a sum of money will become four times the original amount in 2 years, if the interest is compounded half-yearly.
ANSWER:
Let the rate percent per annum be R.
Then,A = P(1 + R)²n
4P = P(1 + R/200)4
(1 + R/200)4 = 4
(1 + R/200) = 1.4142
R/200 = 0.4142
R = 82.84
Thus, the required rate is 82.84%.

Question 19:
The difference between the compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 7.5% per annum is Rs 360. Find the sum.
ANSWER:
Let the sum be P.
Thus, we have:CI − SI = 360
P[1.155625 − 1] − 0.15P = 3600.155625P − 0.15P = 3600.005625P = 360P = 360/0.005625P = 64000
Thus, the required sum is Rs 64,000.

410 = 4,000(1 + R/100)² − 4,000
4,410 = 4,000(1 + R/100)²
(1 + R/100)² = 4,410/4,000
(1 + R/100)² = 1.1025
(1 + R/100)² = (1.05)²
1 + R/100 = 1.05
R/100 = 0.05R = 5
Thus, the required rate percent is 5.
