Tarun bought and article for Rs. 8000 and spent Rs. 1000 for transportation. He marked the article Rs. 11,700 and sold it to a customer. If the customer had to pay 10% sales tax, find:
(i) the customer’s price
(ii) Tarun’s profit percent.
Mr. Gupta opened a recurring deposit account in a bank. He deposited Rs. 2500 per month for two years. At the time of maturity he got Rs. 67,500. Find:
(i) the total interest earned by Mr. Gupta.
(ii)the rate of interest per annum.
(i) Given,
Monthly instalment = Rs. 2500
n = 2years = 2 x 12 months = 24 months
Amount deposited = 2500 24 = Rs. 60000
Maturity value = Rs. 67500
Interest on his deposit = Rs. (67500 – 60000) = Rs. 7500
Thus, the total interest earned by Mr. Gupta is Rs. 7500
(ii) We have,
Interest =
Thus, the rate of interest per annum is 12 %
