Question

Mr. Gupta opened a recurring deposit account in a bank. He deposited Rs. 2,500 per month for two years. At the time of maturity he got Rs. 67,500. Find:

  1. the total interest earned by Mr. Gupta.
  2. the rate of interest per annum.
Sum

Solution

Deposit per month = Rs. 2,500

Period = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity value = Rs. 67,500

i. Total principal for 1 month

= `(P xx n(n + 1))/(2)`

= ₹ `(2500 xx 24 xx 25)/(2)`

= ₹ 7,50,000

∴ Interest

= ₹ 67,500 – 24 × 2,500

= ₹ 67,500 – 60,000

= ₹ 7,500

ii. Period = 1 month

= `1/12` year

∴ Rate of interest

= `(S.I. xx 100)/(P xx T)`

= `(7500 xx 100 xx 12)/(750000 xx 1)`

= 12%
