1. A person borrows 10000 for 3 years at 5% p.a. simple interest. He immediately lends it to another person at 3(5/9) p.a. for 3 years. Find his gain in the transaction per year.
Solution:
R = 3(5/9) = 32/9.
Total Gain = 10000*3*5/100 – 10000*(32/9)*3/100
= 10000*3/100 [5-32/9]
= 300 [(45-32)/9]
= 300(13/9)
= 433.29.
Gain per year = 433.29/ 3 = 144.43.
2. How much time will it take for an amount of 500 to yield 250 as interest as 5% per annum of simple interest?
Solution:
S.I = PTR/100
250 = 500*5*T/100
T = 10 years.
