A person wishes to purchase a house for ₹39,65,000 with a down payment of ₹5,00,000 and balance in equal monthly installments (EMI) for 25 years. If bank charges 6% per annum compounded monthly, then EMI on reducing balance payment method is: [Given $(1.005)^{300} = 4.465$] |
₹22325 ₹36542 ₹21652 ₹34500 |
₹22325 |
The correct answer is Option (1) → ₹22325 Cost of house $=3965000$ Down payment $=500000$ Loan amount $P=3965000-500000=3465000$ Rate of interest per annum $=6\%$ Rate per month $r=\frac{6}{12\times100}=0.005$ Time $=25$ years Number of monthly installments $n=25\times12=300$ EMI formula on reducing balance method $\text{EMI}=P\frac{r(1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1}$ Substitute values $\text{EMI}=3465000\frac{0.005(1.005)^{300}}{(1.005)^{300}-1}$ $(1.005)^{300}\approx4.47$ $\text{EMI}=3465000\frac{0.005\times4.47}{3.47}$ $\text{EMI}\approx3465000\times0.00644$ $\text{EMI}\approx22318$ The EMI is approximately ₹22,318 per month. |
