Exercise : Chapter 2 Banking Recurring Deposit Accounts Exercise 2B MCQ Questions and Answers

1. Pramod deposits ₹ 600 per month in a Recurring Deposit Account for 4 years If the rate of interest is 8% per year; calculate the maturity value of his account.

Solution :
Installment per month(P) = ₹ 600
Number of months(n) = 48
Rate of interest(r)= 8% p.a.
S.I. = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
= 600 x [48(48+1)/2x12] x (8/100)
= 600 x (2352/24) x (8/100)
= ₹ 4,704
The amount that Manish will get at the time of maturity
= ₹ (600 × 48) + ₹ 4,704
= ₹ 28,800 + ₹ 4,704
= ₹ 33,504

2. Ritu has a Recurring Deposit Account in a bank and deposits ₹ 80 per month for 18 months. Find the rate of interest paid by the bank if the maturity value of account is ₹ 1,554.

Solution :
Installment per month(P) = ₹ 80
Number of months(n) = 18
Let rate of interest(r) = r% p.a.
S.I. = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
= 80 x [18(18+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
= 80 x (342/24) x (r/100)
= ₹ 11.4r
Maturity value = ₹ (80 × 18) + ₹ (11.4r)
Given maturity value = ₹ 1,554
Then ₹ (80 × 18 ) + ₹ (11.4r) = ₹ 1,554
⇒ 11.4r = ₹ 1,554 – ₹ 1,440
⇒ r = 114/11.4 = 10%

3. The maturity value of a R.D. Account is ₹ 16,176. If the monthly installment is ₹ 400 and the rate of interest is 8%; find the time (period) of this R.D Account.

Solution :
Installment per month(P) = ₹ 400
Number of months(n) = n
Let rate of interest(r)= 8% p.a.
S.I. = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
= 400 x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (8/100)
= 400 x (n(n+1)/24) x (8/100)
= ₹ 4n(n+1)/3
Maturity value = ₹ (400 x n) + ₹ 4n(n+1)/3
Given maturity value = ₹ 16,176
Then ₹(400 x n) + ₹ 4n(n+1)/3 = ₹ 16,176
⇒ 1200n +4n2 +4n= ₹ 48,528
⇒ 4n2 +1204n = ₹ 48,528
⇒ n2 +301n – 12132= 0
⇒ (n+337)(n-36)=0
⇒ n = -337 or n=36
Then number of months = 36 months = 3 years

4. Mr. Bajaj needs ₹ 30,000 after 2 years What least money (in multiple of 5) must he deposit every month in a recurring deposit account to get required money after 2 years, the rate of interest being 8% p.a.?

Solution :
Let installment per month = ₹ P
Number of months(n) = 24
Rate of interest = 8% p.a.
S.I. = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)

= P x (600/24) x (8/100)
= ₹ 2P
Maturity value = ₹ (P × 24)+ ₹ 2P = ₹ 26P
Given maturity value = ₹ 30,000
Then 26P = ₹ 30,000
⇒ P = 30,000/26 = ₹ 1153.84 = ₹ 1155 (multiple of 5)

8. Mr. Britto deposits a certain sum of money each month in a Recurring Deposit Account of a bank. If the rate of interest is of 8% per annum and Mr. Britto gets ₹ 8,088 from the bank after 3 years, find the value of his monthly instalment.

Solution :
Let the value of the monthly instalment be ₹ P
Since rate of interest (r) = 8%,
Number of months, n = 3 x 12 = 36
Maturity value (M.V.) = ₹ 8088
∴ M.V. = P x n + P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
⇒ 8088 = P x 36 + P x [36(36+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
⇒ 8088 = P x 36 + P x [36x37/2x12] x (r/100)
⇒ 8088 = 36P + 4.44 P
⇒ 8088 = 40.44 P
⇒ P = 8088/40.44 = 20
Thus, the value of his monthly instalment is ₹ 200

⇒ 15084 = 14400 + 114r
⇒ 114r = 684
⇒ r = 684/114 = 6%
Thus, the rate of interest per anum is 6%

10. Katrina opened a recurring deposit account with a Nationalised Bank for a period of 2 years If the bank pays interest at the rate of 6% per annum and the monthly installment is ₹ 1,000, find the :
(i) interest earned in 2 years
(ii) maturity value

Solution :
(i) Monthly instalment (P) = ₹ 1000
Number of instalments (n) = 2 years = 2 x 12 months = 24 months
Rate of interest (r) = 6%
Interest = ₹ 6370
Now, Interest = P x n + P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
= 1000 x (24 x 25)/24 x 6/100
= ₹ 1500
Thus, the interest earned in 2 years in ₹ 1500.

(ii) Total money deposited in the bank = 24 x ₹ 1000 = ₹ 24000
∴ Maturity value = Total money deposited + Interest
= ₹ (24000 + 1500)

11. Mohan has a recurring deposit account in a bank for 2 years at 6% p.a. simple interest. If he gets ₹ 1200 as interest at the time of maturity, find
(i) the monthly installment
(ii) the amount of maturity

Solution :
Interest, I = ₹ 1,200
Time, n = 2 years = 2 × 12 = 24 months
Rate, r = 6%
(i) To find: Monthly instalment, P
Now,
S.I. = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
⇒ 1200 = P x [24(24+1)/2x12] x (6/100)
⇒ 1200 = P x (24 x 25/24) x (6/100)
⇒ 1200 = P x (3/2)
⇒ P = (1200 x 2)/3
⇒ P = ₹ 800
So, the monthly instalment is ₹ 800.

(ii) Total sum deposited = P × n = ₹ 800 × 24 = ₹ 19,200
∴ Amount of maturity = Total sum deposited + Interest on it
= ₹ (19,200 + 1,200)
= ₹ 20,400

12. Peter has a recurring deposit account in Punjab National Bank at Sadar Bazar, Delhi for 4 years at 10% p.a. He will get ₹ 6,370 as interest on maturity. Find :
(i) monthlyinstallment,
(ii) the maturity value of the account.

Solution :
(i) Let the monthly instalment be ₹ P.
n = 4 years = 4 x 12 months = 48 months
Rate of interest, r = 10%
Interest = ₹ 6370
Now, Interest = P x [n(n+1)/2x12] x (r/100)
⇒ 6370 = P x [48(48+1)/24] x (10/100)
⇒ 6370 = P x [(48 x 49)/24] x (10/100)
⇒ 6370 = P x (49/5)
⇒ P = 6370 x (49/5) = ₹ 650
Thus, the monthly instalment is ₹ 650.

(ii) Total money deposited in the bank = 48 x ₹ 650 = ₹ 31200
∴ Maturity value = Total money deposited + Interest
= ₹ (31200 + 6370)
= ₹ 37570
