  1. Simple Interest

    1. SI on Rs. 4000 at 6% per annum for 2 years is:

    • A. 420
    • B. 440
    • C. 460
    • D. 480 (Correct)

    Explanation: SI = 4000 x 6 x 2 / 100 = 480.

  2. Simple Interest

    2. If principal is Rs. 2500 and SI is Rs. 500, amount is:

    • A. 2800
    • B. 2900
    • C. 3000 (Correct)
    • D. 3100

    Explanation: Amount = principal + interest.

  3. Simple Interest

    3. At what rate will Rs. 3000 earn Rs. 450 in 3 years as SI?

    • A. 4%
    • B. 5% (Correct)
    • C. 6%
    • D. 7%

    Explanation: R = 450 x 100 / (3000 x 3) = 5%.

  4. Simple Interest

    4. In how many years will Rs. 5000 earn Rs. 1500 at 10% SI?

    • A. 2
    • B. 3 (Correct)
    • C. 4
    • D. 5

    Explanation: Time = 1500 x 100 / (5000 x 10) = 3 years.

  5. Simple Interest

    5. Amount on Rs. 1000 at 10% CI for 3 years is:

    • A. 1210
    • B. 1300
    • C. 1331 (Correct)
    • D. 1441

    Explanation: Amount = 1000 x 1.1^3 = 1331.

  6. Simple Interest

    6. Difference between CI and SI on Rs. 2000 at 5% for 2 years is:

    • A. 2
    • B. 5 (Correct)
    • C. 8
    • D. 10

    Explanation: Difference for 2 years = P x (R/100)^2 = 2000 x 0.0025 = 5.

  7. Simple Interest

    7. A sum becomes Rs. 2420 in 2 years at 10% CI. Principal is:

    • A. 1800
    • B. 1900
    • C. 2000 (Correct)
    • D. 2200

    Explanation: Principal = 2420/1.21 = 2000.

  8. Simple Interest

    8. SI on Rs. 1500 at 12% for 1 year is:

    • A. 150
    • B. 160
    • C. 180 (Correct)
    • D. 200

    Explanation: SI = 1500 x 12/100 = 180.

  9. Simple Interest

    9. If amount is Rs. 5520 and principal is Rs. 4600 under SI, interest is:

    • A. 820
    • B. 900
    • C. 920 (Correct)
    • D. 960

    Explanation: Interest = amount - principal = 920.

  10. Simple Interest

    10. If SI on Rs. 1200 for 2 years is Rs. 192, rate is:

    • A. 6%
    • B. 7%
    • C. 8% (Correct)
    • D. 9%

    Explanation: R = 192 x 100 / (1200 x 2) = 8%.

  11. Simple Interest

    11. At 20% annual CI, the growth factor each year is:

    • A. 1.02
    • B. 1.2 (Correct)
    • C. 2
    • D. 20

    Explanation: Growth factor = 1 + 20/100 = 1.2.

  12. Simple Interest

    12. At 8% per annum compounded half-yearly, the rate per half-year is:

    • A. 2%
    • B. 4% (Correct)
    • C. 6%
    • D. 8%
