Question 14 Marks
Ms. Saha opened a cumulative deposit account of monthly instalment of Rs $1,200$ at $9\%$ p.a simple interest. She earned a total interest of Rs $5,328.$ How much installments did she pay?
Answer
Given that, cumulative deposit per month $=$ Rs $1200 ,$ Period $=t$ Months, $R=9 \%$, Interest amount= Rs. $5328$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $x$ No ofMonths $=1200 x$ t $=$ Rs $1200 t$
Total Principal for 1 Month $=\frac{1200 \times( t )( t +1)}{2}$
$=600 t^2+600 t$
$\text { Interest }=\frac{\text { Principal for One month } \times R }{12 \times 100}\ldots (1)$
Putting Values in (1), we get
$ 5328=\frac{\left(600 t^2+600 t\right) \times 9}{1200}$
$\Rightarrow 5328=\left(4.5 t^2+4.5 t\right)$
$\Rightarrow 4.5 t^2+4.5 t-5328=0$
$\Rightarrow t=34 \text { months (approximately) } $
Thus, she paid $34$ installments.

Question 24 Marks
Mr. Banerjee opens a recurring deposit account for Rs 3,000 per month at 9% simple interest pa. On maturity, he gets Rs. 1,70,460. Find the period for which he continued with the account.
Answer
Given that cumulative deposit per month $= Rs 3000$, Period $= t$ Months, $R =9 \%$, Maturity amount= Rs. $1,70,460$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $\times$ No ofMonths $=3000 \times t=$ Rs $3000 t$
Total Principal for 1 Month $=\frac{3000 \times( t )( t +1)}{2}$
$=1500 t^2+1500 t$
Interest= Principal for One month $\times RI (12 \times 100)$$\ldots(1)$
Putting Values in (1), we get
$ 170460-3000 t=\frac{\left(1500 t^2+1500 t\right) \times 9}{1200}$
$170460-3000 t=\frac{45 t^2+45 t}{4}$
$45 t^2+12045 t-681840=0$
$45 t^2-2160 t+14205 t-681840=0$
$45 t(t-48)+14205(t-48)=0$
$(t-48)(45 t+14205)=0$
$t=48, t=-\frac{14205}{45} $
The number of months cannot be negative.
Hence, $t =48$ months $=4$ years

Question 34 Marks
Mr. Mohan has a cumulative deposit account for 3 years at 7% interest pa. She receives Rs 8,547 as a maturity amount after 3 years.
(a) Find the monthly deposit.
(b) Find the total interest receivable after maturity.
Answer
Given that cumulative deposit per month $= P$, Period $=3$ years $=36$ Months, $R =7 \%$, Maturity amount $=$ Rs 8,547
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $\times$ No of Months $= P \times 36=$ Rs $36 P$
Total Principal for 1 Month $=$ Rs $\frac{ P \times(36)(36+1)}{2}=$ Rs $666 P$
Interest= Principal for One month $\times R /(12 \times 100)$..... (1)
Putting Values in (1), we get
Rs $8547-36 P =\frac{666 P \times 7}{12 \times 100}$
$8547-36 P =3.885 P$
$\Rightarrow P = Rs 214.3$
Interest amount $=8547-36 P$
$=$ Rs 832 Interest amount $=832$

Question 44 Marks
Aarushi has a recurring deposit account for $2$ years at $6\%$ pa. She receives Rs $1,125$ as interest on maturity.
(a) Find the monthly instalment amount.
(b) Find the maturity amount.
Answer
Given that Recurring deposit per month $= P$, Period $=2$ years $=24$ Months, $R =6 \%$, Interest amount = Rs $1, 125$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $\times$ No of Months $= P \times 24= Rs 24 P$
Total Principal for $1$ Month $=$ Rs $\frac{ P \times(24)(24+1)}{2}=$ Rs $300 P$
Interest= Principal for One month $x$ RI $(12 \times 100)\ldots(1)$
Putting Values in (1), we get
$ \text { Rs } 1125=\frac{300 P \times 6}{12 \times 100}$
$P=\text { Rs } \frac{1125 \times 12 \times 100}{300 \times 6}$
$P=\text { Rs } 750$
$\text { Maturity amount }=P \times 24+\text { Interest }$
$=750 \times 24+1125$
$\Rightarrow \text { Maturity amount }=19,125 $

Question 54 Marks
Mr. Menon deposit Rs 1,200 per month in a cumulative deposit account for a period of 5 years. After the end of the period, he will receive Rs 88,470. (a) Find the rate of the interest per annum. (b) Find the total interest that Mr. Menon will earn.
Answer
Given that Recurring deposit per month $=$ Rs 1,200 , Period $=5$ years $=60$
Months, R=R0/o, Maturity value $= Rs 88,470$ Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $x$ No of Months $=1,200 \times 60=$ Rs 72,000
$\Rightarrow$ Interest that gets for this period = Maturity Value - Amount deposited
$=\operatorname{Rs}(88,470-72,000)$
$=\operatorname{Rs} 16,470$
Total Principal for 1 Month $=$ Rs $\frac{1200 \times(60)(60+1)}{2}=$ Rs 2196000
Rs $16470=\frac{ R \times 2196000}{12 \times 100}$
$\Rightarrow R =\frac{16470 \times 12 \times 100}{2196000}$
$R=9 \%$

Mr. Patel deposit Rs 2,250 per month in a recurring deposit account for a period of 3 years. At the time of maturity, he gets Rs 90,990.
(a) Find the rate of simple interest per annum.
(b) Find the total interest earned by Mr. Patel.
Answer
Given that Recurring deposit per month $=$ Rs 2,250, Period $=3$ years $=36$
Months, R=R0/o, Maturity value $= Rs 90,990$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $x$ No of Months
$
=2,250 \times 36=\operatorname{Rs} 81,000
$
$\Rightarrow$ Interest that gets for this period $=$ Maturity Value - Amount deposited $=90,990-81,000$
$
=\text { Rs } 9,990
$
Total Principal for 1 Month $=$ Rs $\frac{2250 \times(36)(36+1)}{2}=$ Rs 1498500
$
9990=\frac{ R \times 1498500}{12 \times 100}
$
$
\Rightarrow R =\frac{9990 \times 12 \times 100}{1498500}

Question 74 Marks
Mrs Khandelkar invests Rs 900 every month in a recurring deposit account for a period of 3 years at a simple interest rate of 8% pa
(a) Find the total interest she will earn at the end of the period.
(b) Find the maturity value of her deposits.
Answer
Given that Recurring deposit per month $=$ Rs 900 , Period $=3$ years $=36$ Months, $R=8 \%$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $✗$ No of Months
$
=900 \times 36=\text { Rs } 32,400 \text {.$\ldots (1)$ }
$
Total Principal for 1 Month=Rs $\frac{900 \times(36)(36+1)}{2}=$ Rs 599400
Interest $=$ Rs $\frac{8 \times 599400}{12 \times 100}=$ Rs 3996$\ldots (2)$
Hence Maturity Amount $=(1)+(2)$
$
=\operatorname{Rs}(32,400+3,996)
$
Hence Maturity Amount= Rs 36,396
And Interest= Rs 3,996

(a) Find the maturity value of deposit.
(b) Find the total interest she will earn after 2 years
Answer
Given that recurring deposit per month $=$ Rs 500, Period $=4$ years $=48$ Months, $R=6 \%$
Money deposited $=$ Monthly value $✗$ No of Months

$
Total Principal for 1 Month= Rs $\frac{500 \times(48)(48+1)}{2}=$ Rs 588000
$
\text { Interest }=\text { Rs } \frac{6 \times 588000}{12 \times 100}=\text { Rs } 2940\ldots (2)
$
Hence Maturity Amount $=(1)+(2)$
$
=\operatorname{Rs}(24,000+2,940)

December1492214920
2008,January1492214920
February1492214920
March1492214920

Total principal at the end of September 2007
=Rs $11000+7800+14600 \times 4$
=Rs 77200
Therefore interest at the end of sep. 2007
$
=\frac{77200 \times 5 \times 1}{100 \times 12}=321.66
$
Thus interest earned is Rs 322
Again, principal at the end of March, $2008=14920 \times 6=89520$
Therefore interest at the end of Mar. 2008
$
=\frac{89520 \times 5 \times 1}{100 \times 12}=373
$
Hence, Account balance as on 01.04.2008 is
$=$ Rs $14920+$ Rs 373
