A. $503
B. $504
C. $505
D. $506
Cash price = $21 000
Deposit = 10% × $21 000
= $2100
Loan amount = $21 000 − $2100
= $18 900
I=p*r*t/100
I=11340
Total amount = 18 900 + 11 340
= $30 240
regular payment = total amount /number of payments

A. 3.46%
B. 4.5%
C. 5%
D. 6%

Let the original rate be R%. Then, new rate = (2R)%.
Note: Here, original rate is for 1 year(s); the new rate is for only 4 months i.e.1/3 year(s).
[(725 x r x1)/100] + [(362.50 x 2r x1)/(100 x 3)] = 33.50
R=3.46%

A. Rs. 6400
B. Rs. 6500
C. Rs. 7200
D. Rs. 7500

Let the sum invested in Scheme A be Rs. x and that in Scheme B be Rs. (13900 – x).
then , (x*14*2/100)+(13900-x)*11*2/100) =3508
28x – 22x = 350800 – (13900 x 22)
6x = 45000
x = 7500.
So, sum invested in Scheme B = Rs. (13900 – 7500) = Rs. 6400.
