A person borrowed ₹2,000 at 5% annual simple interest repayable in 3 equal annual installments. What will be the annual installment?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Let equal installment = 100 Rs
Rate=5 %
Payable amount in First year=Principal = Rs 100
Payable amount in second year = Principal + Interest
= 100 + 5% of 100
= 100 + 5
= Rs 105
Payable amount in third year = Principal + Interest
= 100 + 10 % of 100
= 100 + 10
= Rs 110
Payable amount after 3 years = 100 + 105 + 110 = 315
ATQ
315 unit = Rs. 2300
1 unit = \(\frac{2300}{315}\)
100 unit = \(\frac{2300}{315}\) × 100 = \(\frac{230000}{315}\)
= 730 \(\frac{10}{63}\)
