On a certain sum of money, the simple interest for 2 years is Rs. 350 at the rate of 4% per annum. It was invested at compound interest at the same rate for the same duration as before, how much more interest would be earned?
-
- Rs. 3.50
- Rs. 7
- Rs. 14
- Rs. 35
Correct Option: B
Given that , S.I. = Rs. 350 , Time = 2 years , Rate = 4%
As we know that ,
Principal = | |
Time × Rate |
Principal = | = Rs. 4375 | |
2 × 4 |
C.I. = P | ![]() | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | T | − 1 | ![]() | |
100 |
C.I. = 4375 | ![]() | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | 2 | − 1 | ![]() | |
100 |
C.I. = 4375 | ![]() | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | 2 | − 1 | ![]() | |
25 |
C.I. = 4375 | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | 2 | − 1 | ![]() | |
25 |
C.I. = 4375 | ![]() | − 1 | ![]() | |
625 |
C.I. = | = Rs. 357 | |
625 |
Required difference = C.I. - S.I.
∴ Required difference = Rs. (357 – 350) = Rs. 7
