Options:

₹4,387

₹4,287

₹4,487

₹5,487

Correct Answer:

₹4,387

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1- ₹4,387.

Total drawings = 4,500 x 12
                        = 54,000

Average period is 6.5 months

Interest on drawings =  Total drawings X Rate of interest/100 X Average period/12

Interest on drawings = 54,000 X 15/100 X 6.5/12
                                  = ₹4,387.5
