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
15 31 30 31 31 `square` `square`

∴ Date of discounting is `square`


The difference between true discount and banker's discount on a bill due 6 months hence at 4% is ₹ 160. Calculate true discount, banker's discount and amount of bill.
