A sum of Rs. 25, 000 is borrowed over 8 years. What will be the monthly repayments @ 18% compounded monthly?
a. 439
b. 493
c. 394
d. 349
Ans - b
Explanation :
Here,
PV = Rs. 25000
T = 8 years = 8 × 12 = 96 months
R = 18% = 18% ÷ 12 = 0.015% monthly
PV = P / R * [(1+R)^T - 1]/(1+R)^T
25000 = P × (1.01596 – 1) ÷ (0.015 × 1.01596)
25000 = P × 50.7017
P = 25000 / 50.7017
= 493

Find the present value of quarterly payment of Rs. 250 for 5 years @ 12% compounded quarterly.
a. 3179
b. 3019
c. 3109
d. 3719
Ans - d
Explanation :
Here,
P = Rs. 250
T = 5 years = 5 × 4 = 20 quarters
R = 12% = 12% ÷ 4 = 0.03% quarterly
PV = P / R * [(1+R)^T - 1]/(1+R)^T
PV = 250 × (1.0320 – 1) ÷ (0.03 × 1.0320)
= 3719

You are receiving Rs. 10000 every year for the next 5 years (at the end of the period) and you invest each payment @ 5%. How much you would have at the end of the 5-year period?
a. 55526
b. 55652
c. 55265

Here,
P = 10000
R = 5% p.a.
T = 5 yrs
If invested at the end,
FV = P / R * [(1+R)^T - 1]
FV = 10000 × (1.05^5 – 1) ÷ 0.05
= 55256
