प्रश्न

Find the sum invested at `12  1/2` p.a. compound interest on which the interest for the third year exceeds that of the first year by Rs 531.25.

योग

उत्तर

Let the sum be P

Interest for first year: 

`"P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100)) - "P"` ..................(i)

Interest for third year: 

`"P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100))^3 - "P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100))^2`  .........(ii)

Subtracting (ii) from (i) 

`"P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100))^3 - "P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100))^2 - "P" (1 + 25/(2 xx 100)) + "P"` = Rs 531.25

Rs 531. 25 = 1. 423828 P - 1. 265625 P - 1. 125 P + P

Rs 531. 25 = 0. 033203 P

P = Rs 16,000 

Hence the sum is Rs 16,000
