प्रश्न
A bill of ₹ 65,700 drawn on July 10 for 6 months was discounted for ₹ 65,160 at 5% p.a. On what day was the bill discounted?
उत्तर
Given, Face value = ₹ 65,700
Date of drawing = 10th July
Period of the bill = 6 months
∴ Nominal due date = 10th January
Legal due date = 13th January
r = 5% p.a.
Cash value = ₹ 65,160
Since, B.D. = F.V. – C.V. = 65,700 – 65,160
∴ B.D. = ₹ 540
But, B.D. = interest on F.V. for n years at r %
i.e., B.D. = `("F.V." xx "n"/365 xx "r")/100`
∴ `540 = (65700 xx "n" xx 5)/(100 x 365)`
∴ n = `(540 xx 365 xx 100)/(65700 xx 5)`
∴ Discount is deducted for 60 days. Thus, the bill is discounted 60 days before 13th January.

13 | 31 | 16 | 60 |
∴ Date of discounting the bill is 14th November.

A bill of ₹ 8,000 drawn on 5th January 2019 for 8 months was discounted for ₹ 7,680 on a certain date. Find the date on which it was discounted at 10% p.a.
Solution: Banker’s Discount
B.D.= F.V. − C.V. = 8,000 −7,680 = ₹ 320
Date of drawing = 5th January 2019
Period = 8 months
Nominal due date = `square`
Legal due date = `square`
B.D. = Interest on F.V. for n at 10% p.a.
∴ B.D. = `("F.V." xx "n"/365 xx "r")/100`
∴ 320 = `(8000 xx "n"/365 xx 10)/100`
∴ n = `square` days
April | May | June | July | Aug | Sep | Total |
