The compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 10% per annum is Tk. The simple interest on the same sum for double the time at half the rate percent per annum is :

A     Tk. 400

B     Tk. 500

C    Tk. 600

D    Tk. 800

Solution

Correct Answer: Option B

 

The compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 10% per annum is Tk. 525. 

C = P(1+r/100)n

525+P =  P(1+ .1)2

=>P = 2500

For Simple Interest,

I = Pnr

   = 2500X4X.05 = 500
