Question #2 Report Error
The compound interest on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 10% per annum is Rs. 1050. What would be the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate for the same time?
A. Rs. 1000
B. Rs. 950

D. Rs. 1040

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Effective rate of compound interest for 2 years at 10% = 10 + 10 + (1010)/100 = 21%. Simple interest rate = 10 * 2 = 20%. Given 21% of sum = 1050 => 1% of sum = 50. Simple Interest = 20% of sum = 20 * 50 = Rs. 1000.
