Mrs Goswami deposits ₹1000 per month in a recurring deposit account for 3 years at 8% interest per annum. Find the matured value.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹1,000

n = 3 years = 3 x 12 = 36 months

r = 8%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 1000 \times \dfrac{36 \times 37}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{8}{100} \\[1em] I = 1000 \times \dfrac{1332}{24} \times 0.08 \\[1em] I = 1000 \times 55.5 \times 0.08 \\[1em] I = ₹4,440$

Sum deposited = ₹1,000 x 36 = ₹36,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹36,000 + ₹4,440 = ₹40,440

Hence, the matured value is ₹40,440

Inderjeet opened a cumulative time deposit account with Punjab National Bank. He deposited ₹360 per month for 2 years. If the rate of interest be 7% per annum, how much did he get at the time of maturity?

Answer

Given,

P = ₹360

n = 2 years = 2 x 12 = 24 months

r = 7%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 360 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{7}{100} \\[1em] I = 360 \times \dfrac{600}{24} \times 0.07 \\[1em] I = 360 \times 25 \times 0.07 \\[1em] I = ₹630$

Sum deposited = ₹360 x 24 = ₹8,640

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹8,640 + ₹630 = ₹9,270

Hence, Inderjeet got ₹9,270 at the time of maturity.

Neema had a recurring deposit account in a bank and deposited ₹ 600 per month for $2\dfrac{1}{2}$ years. If the rate of interest was 10% per annum, find the maturity value of this account.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹600

n = $2\dfrac{1}{2}$ years = 2.5 years = 24 months + 6 months = 30 months

r = 10%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 600\times \dfrac{30\times 31}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{10}{100} \\[1em] I = 600 \times \dfrac{930}{24} \times 0.1 \\[1em] I = 600 \times 38.75 \times 0.1 \\[1em] I = ₹2,325$

Sum deposited = ₹600 x 30 = ₹18,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹18,000 + ₹2,325 = ₹20,325

Hence, Neema got ₹20,325 at the time of maturity.

Sajal invests ₹600 per month for $2\dfrac{1}{2}$ years in a recurring deposit scheme of Oriental Bank of Commerce. If the bank pays simple interest at $6\dfrac{2}{3}$ % per annum, find the amount received by him on maturity.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹600

n = $2\dfrac{1}{2}$ years = 2.5 years = 24 months + 6 months = 30 months

r = 6 $\dfrac{2}{3}$ % = $\dfrac{20}{3}$

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 600\times \dfrac{30\times 31}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{\dfrac{20}{3}}{100}\\[1em] I = 600 \times \dfrac{930}{24} \times \dfrac{20}{300}\\[1em] I = 600 \times 38.75 \times 0.67\\[1em] I = ₹1,550$

Sum deposited = ₹600 x 30 = ₹18,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹18,000 + ₹1,550 = ₹19,550

Hence, Sajal got ₹19,550 at the time of maturity.

Mr. Richard has a recurring deposit account in a bank for 3 years at 7.5% per annum simple interest. If he gets ₹8,325 as interest at the time of maturity, find:

(i) The monthly deposit,

(ii) The maturity value.

Answer

Given,

n = 3 year = 36 months

r = 7.5%

I = ₹8,325

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore 8325 = P\times \dfrac{36\times 37}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{7.5}{100} \\[1em] 8325 = P \times \dfrac{1332}{24} \times 0.075 \\[1em] 8325 = P \times 4.1625 \\[1em] P=\dfrac{8325}{4.1625}\\[1em] I = ₹2,000$

Sum deposited = ₹2,000 x 36 = ₹72,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹72,000 + ₹8,325 = ₹80,325

Hence, (i) Mr.Richard deposited ₹2,000 monthly (ii) Mr.Richard got ₹80,325 at the time of maturity.

(i) interest earned in 2 years,

(ii) matured value .

Answer

Given,

P = ₹1,000

n = 2 years = 24 months

r = 6%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 1000 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{6}{100} \\[1em] I = 1000\times \dfrac{600}{24} \times 0.06 \\[1em] I = 1000 \times 25 \times 0.06 \\[1em] I = ₹1,500$

Sum deposited = ₹1,000 x 24 = ₹24,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹24,000 + ₹1,500 = ₹25,500.

Hence,(i)Interest earned by Katrina ₹1,500.(ii) Katrina got ₹25,500 at the time of maturity.

Ahmed has a recurring deposit account in a bank. He deposits ₹2,500 per month for 2 years. If he gets ₹66,250 at the time of maturity, find:

(i) the interest paid by the bank

(ii) the rate of interest.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹2,500

n = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity value = ₹66,250

Sum deposited = ₹2,500 x 24 = ₹60,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest

Interest = Maturity value - Sum deposited

∴ I = ₹66,250 - ₹60,000

I = ₹6,250

Let rate of interest be r %

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 2500 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 12} \times r \\[1em] 6250 = 2500\times \dfrac{600}{24} \times\dfrac{r} {100} \\[1em] 6250\times 100= 2500 \times 25 \times r\\[1em] 625000 = 62500\times r\\[1em] r=\dfrac{625000}{62500}\\[1em] r=10$

Hence,(i) Interest earned by Ahmed ₹6,250 (ii) Rate of interest is 10% .

Mr. Gupta opened a recurring deposit account in a bank. He deposited ₹2,500 per month for 2 years. At the time of maturity he got ₹67,500. Find:

(i) the total interest earned by Mr. Gupta

(ii) the rate of interest per annum

Answer

Given,

P = ₹2,500

n = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity Value = ₹67,500

Sum deposited = ₹2,500 × 24 = ₹60,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest

Interest = Maturity value - Sum deposited

∴ I = ₹67,500 − ₹60,000 = ₹7,500

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 2500 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100} \\[1em] 7500 = 62500 \times \dfrac{r}{100} \\[1em] r = \dfrac{7500 \times 100}{62500} \\[1em] r=12$

Hence, (i)Mr. Gupta earned ₹7,500 as interest.(ii)The rate of interest was 12% per annum.

Mr. Thomas has a 4 years cumulative time deposit account in Corporation Bank and deposits ₹650 per month. If he receives ₹36,296 at the time of maturity, find:

(i) the total interest earned by Mr. Thomas.

(ii) the rate of interest per annum.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹650

n = 4 years = 4 x 12 months = 48 months

Maturity Value = ₹36,296

Sum deposited = ₹650 × 48 = ₹31,200

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest

Interest = Maturity value - Sum deposited = ₹36,296 − ₹31,200 = ₹5,096

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 650 \times \dfrac{48 \times 49}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100} \\[1em] 5096 = 63700 \times \dfrac{r}{100} \\[1em] r = \dfrac{5096 \times 100}{63700} \\[1em] r =8$

i)Mr. Thomas earned ₹5,096 as interest.

ii) The rate of interest was approximately 8% per annum.

Tanvy has a recurring deposit account in a finance company for 1½ years at 9% per annum. If she gets ₹15,426 at the time of maturity, how much per month has been invested by her?

Answer

Given,

T = 1½ years = 18 months

r = 9%

Maturity Value = ₹15,426

Let monthly deposit be P

Sum deposited = P × 18 = 18P

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = P \times \dfrac{18 \times 19}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{9}{100}\\[1em] = P \times \dfrac{342}{24} \times \dfrac{9}{100} \\[1em] = P \times \dfrac{57}{4} \times \dfrac{9}{100} \\[1em] = P \times \dfrac{513}{400}\\[1em] \text{Maturity Value} = 18P + \dfrac{513P}{400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{7200P + 513P}{400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{7713P}{400}\\[1em] \therefore 15426 = \dfrac{7713P}{400} \\[1em] P = \dfrac{15426 \times 400}{7713} = ₹800$

Hence, Tanvy deposited ₹800 per month.

Punam opened a recurring deposit account with Bank of Baroda for 1½ years. If the rate of interest is 6% per annum and the bank pays ₹11,313 on maturity, find how much Punam deposited each month?

Answer

Given,

n = 1½ years = 18 months

r = 6%

Maturity Value = ₹11,313

Let monthly deposit be P

Sum deposited = P × 18 = 18P

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = P \times \dfrac{18 \times 19}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{6}{100}\\[1em] I= P \times \dfrac{342}{24} \times \dfrac{6}{100} \\[1em] I= P \times \dfrac{57}{4} \times \dfrac{6}{100} \\[1em] I= P \times \dfrac{342}{400}\\[1em] I = \dfrac{171}{200}P\\[1em]$

Maturity Value = Sum deposited + Interest

$Maturity Value = 18P + \dfrac{171P}{200} \\[1em] = \dfrac{3600P + 171P}{200} \\[1em] = \dfrac{3771P}{200}\\[1em] \therefore 11313 = \dfrac{3771P}{200} \\[1em] P = \dfrac{11313 \times 200}{3771} = ₹600$

Hence, Punam deposited ₹600 per month.

Kavita has a cumulative time deposit account in a bank. She deposits ₹600 per month and gets ₹6,165 at the time of maturity. If the rate of interest be 6% per annum, find the total time for which the account was held. (Hint: x² + 411x − 10x − 4110 = 0)

Answer

Given,

P = ₹600

Maturity Value = ₹6,165

r = 6% per annum

Let the number of months be 'x'.

Sum deposited = P × x = 600x

Interest (I) = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$I = 600 \times \dfrac{x(x+1)}{24} \times \dfrac{6}{100}\\[1em] I = 600 \times \dfrac{6x(x+1)}{2400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{3600x(x+1)}{2400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{3}{2} x(x+1)$

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest

$\Rightarrow 600x + \dfrac{3x(x + 1)}{2} = 6165 \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{1200x + 3x^2 + 3x}{2} = 6165 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3x^2 + 1203x = 12330 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3x^2 + 1203x - 12330 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 3(x^2 + 401x - 4110) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x^2 + 401x - 4110 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x^2 + 411x - 10x - 4110 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x(x + 411) - 10(x + 4110) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow (x - 10)(x + 411) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = 10 \text{ or } x = -411.$

Since the number of months cannot be negative

∴ x = 10 months.

Hence,total time for which the account was held = 10 months.

Kavita has a cumulative time deposit account in a bank. She deposits ₹800 per month and gets ₹16,700 as maturity value. If the rate of interest be 5% per annum, find the total time for which the account was held. (Hint: x² + 481x − 10020 = 0 ⇒ x² + 501x − 20x − 10020 = 0)

Answer

Given,

P = ₹800

Maturity Value = ₹16,700

r = 5%

Let the number of months be 'x'.

Sum deposited = P × x = 800x

Interest (I) = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$I = 800 \times \dfrac{x(x+1)}{24} \times \dfrac{5}{100}\\[1em] I = 800 \times \dfrac{5x(x+1)}{2400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{4000x(x+1)}{2400} \\[1em] = \dfrac{5}{3} x(x+1)$

Maturity Value = Sum deposited + Interest

$\Rightarrow 16700 = 800x + \dfrac{5}{3} x(x+1) \\[1em] \Rightarrow 50100 = 2400x + 5x(x+1) \\[1em] \Rightarrow 50100 = 2400x + 5x^2 + 5x \\[1em] \Rightarrow 5x^2 + 2405x - 50100 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 5(x^2 + 481x - 10020) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x^2 + 481x - 10020 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x^2 + 501x - 20x - 10020 = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x(x + 501) - 20(x + 501) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow (x - 20)(x + 501) = 0 \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = 20 \text{ or } x = -501$

Since the number of months cannot be negative

∴ x = 20 months

Hence, total time for which the account was held is 20 months.

David opened a recurring deposit account in a bank and deposited ₹300 per month for two years. If he received ₹7,725 at the time of maturity, find the rate of interest per annum.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹300

n = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity Value = ₹7,725

Let the rate of interest be 'r' % per annum.

Sum deposited = P × n = 300 × 24 = ₹7,200

Maturity Value = Sum deposited + Interest=7,200+I

I = Maturity Value - Sum deposited

I = ₹7,725 - ₹7,200

I= ₹525

$I = P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 300 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{24} \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] I = 300 \times 25 \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] I = 7500 \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 525 = 75r\\[1em] r = \dfrac{525}{75} \\[1em] r=7$

Hence, the rate of interest per annum is 7%p.a.

Preeti has a recurring deposit account of ₹1,000 per month at 10% per annum. If she gets ₹5,550 as interest at the time of maturity, find the total time for which the account was held.

Answer

Given,

Monthly deposit (P) = ₹1,000

Rate of interest (r) = 10% per annum

Interest (I) = ₹5,550

Let the total time be 'n' months.

Interest (I) = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore 5550 = 1000 \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{24} \times \dfrac{10}{100}\\[1em] 5550 = 1000 \times \dfrac{10n(n+1)}{2400}\\[1em] 5550 = \dfrac{10000n(n+1)}{2400} \\[1em] 5550 = \dfrac{100n(n+1)}{24} \\[1em] 5550 = \dfrac{25n(n+1)}{6} \\[1em] 33300 = 25n(n+1)\\[1em] \dfrac{33300}{25}= n(n+1)\\[1em] n^2 + n =1332 \\[1em] n^2 + n -1332=0$

Solving quadratic equation:

$\Rightarrow n^2 + 37n - 36n- 1332 = 0\\[1em] \Rightarrow n(n + 37) - 36(n + 37) = 0\\[1em] \Rightarrow (n - 36)(n + 37) = 0\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = 36 \text{ or } n = -37$

Since the number of months cannot be negative, n = 36 months.

∴ Number of years the account was held = $\dfrac{36}{12}$ = 3 years.

Hence, the account was held for 3 years.

Rekha opened a recurring deposit account for 20 months. The rate of interest is 9% per annum and Rekha receives ₹441 as interest at the time of maturity. Find the amount Rekha deposited each month.

Answer

Given,

n = 20 months

r = 9%

I = ₹441

Let the amount Rekha deposited each month be 'P'.

Interest (I) = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore 441 = P \times \dfrac{20 \times 21}{24} \times \dfrac{9}{100}\\[1em] 441 = P \times \dfrac{420}{24} \times \dfrac{9}{100}\\[1em] 441 = P \times 17.5 \times 0.09\\[1em] 441 = 1.575P\\[1em] P = \dfrac{441}{1.575}\\[1em] P=₹280$

Hence, Rekha deposited ₹280 each month.

Mr. Sonu has a recurring deposit account and deposits ₹750 per month for 2 years. If he gets ₹19,125 at the time of maturity, find the rate of interest.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹750

n = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity Value = ₹19,125

Let the rate of interest be 'r' per annum

Sum deposited = P × n = 750 × 24 = ₹18,000

Maturity Value = Sum deposited + Interest

Interest = Maturity Value - Sum deposited

∴ I = ₹19,125 - ₹18,000 = ₹1,125

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$1125 = 750 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{24} \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 1125 = 750 \times 25 \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 1125 = 18750 \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 1125 = 187.5r\\[1em] r = \dfrac{1125}{187.5}\\[1em] r=6$

Hence, the rate of interest is 6% per annum.

Salman deposits ₹1,000 every month in a recurring deposit account for 2 years. If he receives ₹26,000 on maturity, find:

(i) the total interest Salman earns.

(ii) the rate of interest.

Answer

Given,

P = ₹1,000

n = 2 years = 24 months

Maturity Value = ₹26,000

(i) The total interest Salman earns.

Sum deposited = P × n = 1,000 × 24 = ₹24,000

The total interest Salman earns is ₹2,000.

(ii) The rate of interest

I = ₹2,000

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore 2000 = 1000 \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{24} \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 2000 = 1000 \times 25 \times \dfrac{r}{100}\\[1em] 2000 = 250r\\[1em] r = \dfrac{2000}{250}\\[1em] r=8$

Hence, (i) The total interest Salman earns is ₹2,000.(ii) The rate of interest is 8% per annum.

If Ramesh Kumar has an R.D. in a post office, he has to deposit:

1. an amount only once

2. the same amount every month

3. a decreasing amount every month

4. an increasing amount every month

Answer

In a recurring deposit a person deposits the same amount every month.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.

In an R.D., the maturity value is the sum of the total amount deposited and the interest. If P is the amount deposited every month for n months and R is the rate of interest, then interest I is equal to:

1. $P \times \dfrac{n}{12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}$

2. $P \times \dfrac{n(n - 1)}{12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}$

3. $P \times \dfrac{n(n + 1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}$

4. $P \times \dfrac{n}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}$

Answer

Given:

Monthly deposit = P

Rate = R

Time = n

$\therefore I = P \times \dfrac{n(n + 1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}$

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

1. ₹1,200

2. ₹600

3. ₹1,000

4. ₹1,600

Answer

Given,

I = 2000

R = 8%

n = 2 years = 24 months

$I = P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}\\[1em] \therefore I = P \times \dfrac{24 \times 25}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{8}{100}\\[1em] I = P \times \dfrac{600}{24} \times 0.08\\[1em] I = P \times 25 \times 0.08\\[1em] 2000 = P \times 2 \\[1em] P=\dfrac{2000}{2}\\[1em] P =₹ 1,000$

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

Joseph has a recurring deposit account in a bank for two years at the rate of 8% per annum simple interest.

The total amount deposited in the bank is:

1. ₹25,000

2. ₹24,000

3. ₹26,000

4. ₹23,000

Answer

Given,

P = ₹1000

n = 24 months

Total deposit = P x n

Total deposit = 1000 x 24

Total deposit= ₹24,000

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.

Joseph has a recurring deposit account in a bank for two years at the rate of 8% per annum simple interest.

The amount Joseph receives on maturity is:

1. ₹27,000

2. ₹25,000

3. ₹26,000

4. ₹28,000

Answer

Given:

Total deposit = ₹24,000

Interest = ₹2,000

Maturity amount = Total Deposit + Interest

Maturity amount = 24000 + 2000

Maturity amount= ₹ 26,000

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

Joseph has a recurring deposit account in a bank for two years at the rate of 8% per annum simple interest.

If the monthly instalment is ₹100 and the rate of interest is 8%, in how many months Joseph will receive ₹52 as interest?

1. 18

2. 30

3. 12

4. 6

Answer

Given:

I = ₹52

P = ₹100

r = 8%

$I = P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100} \\[1em] \therefore I = 100 \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{8}{100} \\[1em] 52 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{24}\times 8 \\[1em] 52 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{3} \\[1em] n(n+1) =52 \times 3 \\[1em] n(n+1) = 156 \\[1em] n^2+n-156 = 0 \\[1em] n^2+13n - 12n-156 = 0 \\[1em] n(n+13) - 12(n+13) = 0 \\[1em] (n+13)(n-12) = 0 \\[1em] n=-13 \text{ or } n=12$

Since the number of months cannot be negative.

∴ n = 12 months

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

Assertion (A) : Sunidhi deposits ₹1,600 per month in a bank for $1\dfrac{1}{2}$ years in a recurring deposit account at 10% p.a. She gets ₹31,080 on maturity.

Reason (R): Maturity value is given by MV = (P x n) - S.I.

1. A is true, R is false

2. A is false, R is true

3. Both A and R are true

4. Both A and R are false.

Answer

A is true, R is false

Reason

According to Assertion:

Given,

P = ₹1,600

n = $1\dfrac{1}{2}$ years = 18 months

r = 10%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 1600\times \dfrac{18\times 19}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{10}{100} \\[1em] I = 1600 \times \dfrac{342}{24} \times 0.1 \\[1em] I = 1600 \times 14.25 \times 0.1 \\[1em] I = ₹2,280$

Sum deposited = ₹1,600 x 18 = ₹28,800

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹28,800 + ₹2,280 = ₹31,080

So, Assertion(A) is true.

According to Reason:

Maturity value is given by MV = (P x n) - S.I.

But ,

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest

Sum deposited = P × n

Maturity value = (P × n) + Interest

So, Reason is false.

Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.

Assertion (A): Pawandeep opened a recurring deposit account in a bank for a period of 2 years. If the bank pays interest at the rate of 6% p.a. and the monthly instalment is ₹1,000, then the maturity amount is ₹25,000.

Reason (R): For a recurring deposit account, we compute the interest using the following formula:

$S.I. = P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{ 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}\\[1em]$

1. A is true, R is false

2. A is false, R is true

3. Both A and R are true

4. Both A and R are false.

Answer

Both A and R are false.

Reason

According to Assertion:

The maturity amount is ₹25,000.

Given,

P = ₹1,000

n = 2 years = 24 months

r = 6%

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

$\therefore I = 1000\times \dfrac{24\times 25}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{6}{100} \\[1em] I = 1000 \times \dfrac{600}{24} \times 0.06\\[1em] I = 1000 \times 25 \times 0.06 \\[1em] I = ₹1500$

Sum deposited = ₹1,000 x 24 = ₹24,000

Maturity value = Sum deposited + Interest = ₹24,000 + ₹1,500 = ₹25,500

The given Maturity amount = ₹25,500

So, Assertion(A) is false.

For a recurring deposit account, we compute the interest using the following formula:

I = $P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \dfrac{r}{100}$

According to Reason:

For a recurring deposit account, we compute the interest using the following formula:

$I = P \times \dfrac{n(n+1)}{ 12} \times \dfrac{R}{100}\\[1em]$

So, Reason(R) is false .

Hence, Option 4 is the correct option.
