Question:

What will be the present value of ₹90,774 due 2 years hence, when the interest is compounded at 23% per annum?

Options:

₹65,000

₹62,950

₹60,850

₹60,000

Correct Answer:

₹60,000

Explanation:

The Formula that we used here is -

Amount = P$(1 \;+\; \frac{R}{100})^t$

90774 = P [ 1 + \(\frac{23}{100}\) ]²

90774 = P [ \(\frac{123}{100}\) ]²

90774 × \(\frac{100}{123}\) × \(\frac{100}{123}\) = P

P = 60000
