Question: A man's investment doubles in every 5 years. If he invested Tk. 5,000 in each of the years 2010, 2015, 2020 then what will be the amount received by him in 2025?

Solution: 
২০১০ এ বিনিয়োগ করা ৫০০০ টাকার ক্ষেত্রে, 
২০২৫ সালে পাওয়া যাবে = ৫০০০ × ২
= ৪০০০০  টাকা 

২০১৫ এ বিনিয়োগ করা ৫০০০ টাকার ক্ষেত্রে, 
২০২৫ সালে পাওয়া যাবে = ৫০০০ × ২
= ২০০০০  টাকা 

২০২০ এ বিনিয়োগ করা ৫০০০ টাকার ক্ষেত্রে, 
২০২৫ সালে পাওয়া যাবে = ৫০০০ × ২
= ১০০০০  টাকা 

মোট = ৪০০০০ + ২০০০০ + ১০০০০ 
= ৭০০০০ টাকা

Solution:
Let,
Principal = P
Interest, I = 3P - P = 2P
Time, n = 8 years
rate = r

r = I/(Pn)
= (2P)/(P × 8)
= (1/4) × 100%
= 25%

Question: Tk. 8000 becomes Tk. 9600 in 2 years at a certain rate of simple interest. If the rate becomes double, what will be the total amount in 5 years on the same principal?

​Solution:
Principal = Tk. 8000
Amount after 2 years = Tk. 9600
∴ Interest in 2 years = 9600 - 8000 = Tk. 1600
∴Interest per year = 1600/2 = Tk. 800

Since the interest rate doubles, the yearly interest also doubles,
∴ Interest per year = 800 × 2 = Tk. 1600
⇒ Interest for 5 years = 1600 × 5 = Tk. 8000
⇒ New total amount = 8000 + 8000 = Tk. 16000

Question: What sum of money will amount to Tk. 2,500 in 4 years and to Tk. 2,900 in 6 years at simple interest?

Solution:
Increase in 2 years = 2,900 - 2,500
= Tk. 400

∴ Simple interest for 2 years = Tk. 400
∴ Simple interest for 4 years = Tk. (400 × 4/2)
= Tk. 800

Principal, P = 2,500 - 800
= Tk. 1,700

S.P of Tk. 5000 stock = {(156/100) × 5000}
= Tk. 7800

Income from this stock = tk. {(12/100) × 5000}
= Tk. 600

Let investment in 8 % stock be x and that in 9 % stock = (7800 - x).

Therefore,
x × (8/90) + (7800 - x) × 9/108 = 600 + 70
⇒ 4x/45 + {(7800 - x)/12} = 670
⇒ 16x + 117000 - 15x = 670 × 180
⇒ x = 3600

Money invested in 8% stock at 90 = Tk. 3600
Money invested in 9% at 108 = Tk. (7800 - 3600)
= Tk. 4200.

Let the sum be Tk.P.then
P(1+R/100)3=6690…(i) and
P(1+R/100)6=10035…(ii)
On dividing,we get (1+R/100)3=10025/6690=3/2.
Substituting this value in (i),we get:
P×(3/2)=6690 or
P=(6690× 2/3)=4460
Hence,the sum is Tk.4460.

Question: Some principal becomes Tk. 1,560 as profit-principal in 3 years and Tk. 1,920 as profit-principal in 6 years. Find the rate of profit.

Solution: 
Given,
Principal + Profit for 3 years = 1560
Principal + Profit for 6 years = 1920

So the profit of 3 years I = Tk. (1920 - 1560)
= Tk. 360

So the principal P = Tk. (1560 - 360)
= Tk. 1200

∴ The rate of profit r = (I × 100)/(P × n)
= (360 × 100)/(1200 × 3)
= 10

Solution:
প্রদত্ত তথ্য অনুযায়ী, আসল (P) এবং সুদের (I) অনুপাত = 5 : 1
মোট প্রাপ্ত টাকা (সুদ-আসল) = 72,000 টাকা
অনুপাতের যোগফল = 5 + 1 = 6

আসল (P) = 72,000 এর (5/6) অংশ = 60,000 টাকা
সুদ (I) = 72,000 এর (1/6) অংশ = 12,000 টাকা

এখানে,
I = 12,000 টাকা
P = 60,000 টাকা
R = 4%
T = ?

আমরা জানি, SI = (P × R × T)/100
⇒ 12,000 = (60,000 × 4 × T)/100
⇒ 12,000 = 600 × 4 × T
⇒ 12,000 = 2,400 × T
⇒ T = 12,000/2,400
⇒ T = 5

∴ টাকাটি 5 বছরের জন্য বিনিয়োগ করা হয়েছিল।

Question: In January, the value of a stock increased by 50%; and in February, it decreased by 20%. In March, it increased by 25%; and in April, it decreased by 10%. If a person invested Tk. 200 in the stock on January 1 and sold it at the end of April, what was the percentage change in the price of the stock?

Solution:
At the end of January,
The value of the stock is = Tk. 200 + 50% of (Tk. 200)
= Tk. 200 + Tk. 100 = Tk. 300.

At the end of February,
The value of the stock is = Tk. 300 - 20% of (Tk. 300)
= Tk. 300 - Tk. 60 = Tk. 240.

At the end of March,
The value of the stock is = Tk. 240 + 25% of (Tk. 240)
= Tk. 240 + Tk. 60 = Tk. 300.

At the end of April,
The value of the stock is = Tk. 300 - 10% of (Tk. 300)
= Tk. 300 - Tk. 30 = Tk. 270.

Now, the percentage change in price is,
= (Change in price/Original price) × 100%
= (270 - 200)/200 × 100%
= (70/200) × 100%
= 35%

Question: Kabir paid Tk. 9,600 as interest on a loan he took 5 years ago at the rate of 16% simple interest per annum. What was the principal amount (the original loan amount) he borrowed?

Solution: 
SI = Interest paid = Tk. 9600
R = Rate of interest = 16% per annum
T = Time = 5 years
P = Principal (the amount we need to find)

We know, 
SI = (P × R × T)/100
⇒ 9600 = (P × 16 × 5)/100
⇒ 9600 = (P × 80)/100
⇒ P = 96000/8
∴ P = 12000

∴ Kabir took a loan of Tk. 12000.

Question: At what rate per annum will Tk. 32000 yield a compound interest of Tk. 5044 in 9 months interest being compounded quarterly?

Solution:
Let, the rate of CI be R per cent per annum
CI = P[{1 + (R/100)}T - 1]
5044 = 32000[{1 + (R/400)}3 - 1]

Since, Interest is compounded quarterly
(5044/32000) = {1 + (R/400)}3 - 1
⇒ {1 + (R/400)}3 - 1 = 1261/8000
⇒ {1 + (R/400)}3 = 1 + (1261/8000)
⇒ {1 + (R/400)}3 = 9261/8000
⇒ {1 + (R/400)}3 = (21/20)3
⇒ 1 + (R/400) = 21/20
⇒ R/400 = (21/20) - 1
⇒ R/400 = 1/20
⇒ r = 400/20
∴ r = 20%

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে, Principal, P = 15000 টাকা
Rate of interest, r = 6%
Time, n = 2 বছর

Simple Interest (SI):
SI = (P × r × n) / 100

= 1800 টাকা

Compound Interest (CI):
CI = P × (1 + r/100)n - P
= 15000 × (1 + 6/100)2 - 15000
= 15000 × (1.06)2 - 15000
= 15000 × 1.1236 - 15000
= 16854 - 15000
= 1854 টাকা

প্রশ্ন: বার্ষিক ৫% মুনাফায় ১৬,০০০ টাকার ২ বছরের সরল ও চক্রবৃদ্ধি মুনাফার পার্থক্য কত হবে?

সমাধান:
এখানে,
মূলধন, P = ১৬০০০ টাকা
সুদের হার, R = ৫%
সময়, T = ২ বছর

সরল মুনাফা, I = (PRT)/১০০
= (১৬০০০ × ৫ × ২)/১০০
= ১৬০০০০/১০০
= ১৬০০ টাকা

চক্রবৃদ্ধি মুনাফার ক্ষেত্রে,
A = P × {১ + (R/১০০)}T
= ১৬০০০ × {১ + (৫/১০০)}
= ১৬০০০ × (১.০৫)
= ১৬০০০ × ১.১০২৫
= ১৭৬৪০ টাকা

∴ চক্রবৃদ্ধি মুনাফা, CI = A − P
= ১৭৬৪০ − ১৬০০০
= ১৬৪০ টাকা

∴ পার্থক্য = ১৬৪০ − ১৬০০ = ৪০ টাকা

Question: There is 60% increase in an amount in 6 years at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of 12,000 after 3 years at the same rate?

Solution: let simple interest r% 

I = pnr/100
⇒ I/p = nr/100
⇒ 0.6 = 6r/100 
⇒ r = 10% 

The compound interest = 12000 (1.1)3 - 12000 
= 12 × 1331 - 12000 
= 15972 - 12000 
= Tk. 3972

Question: A sum of Tk. 20,000 yields a compound interest of Tk. 4200 when invested at 10% per annum. What is the investment period in years?

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে,
আসল, P = 20000 টাকা
সুদের হার, r = 10% বার্ষিক
চক্রবৃদ্ধি সুদ, CI = 4200 টাকা

আমরা জানি,
চক্রবৃদ্ধি মূল, A = P + CI
= 20000 + 4200 = 24200 টাকা

চক্রবৃদ্ধি মূলের সূত্র ব্যবহার করে পাই,
A = P × (1 + r/100)n
⇒ 24200 = 20000 × (1 + 10/100)n
⇒ 24200 = 20000 × (110/100)n
⇒ (110/100)n = 24200/20000
⇒ (1.10)n = 1.21
⇒ (1.10)n = (1.10)2
∴ n = 2 

∴ বিনিয়োগের সময়কাল 2 বছর।

Question: The compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 12% per annum is Tk. 795. The simple interest on the same sum for double the time at half the rate percent per annum is-

Solution: 
Let
The sum be Tk. P

ATQ,
P{1 + (12/100)}2 - P = 795
⇒ P[{1 + (3/25)}2 - 1] = 795
⇒ P{(28/25)2 - 1} = 795
⇒  P{(784/625) - 1} = 795
⇒  P(159/625) = 795
⇒ P = (795 × 625)/159
∴ P = 3125

So The simple interest on the same sum for double the time at half the rate percent per annum is-
SI = 3125 × 4 × 6%

Question: At what annual rate of interest will a sum of money be thrice in 10 years?

Solution: 
Amount = Principal + SI
If the sum of money would be thrice the principal after 10 years, the SI would be twice the principal.
⇒ SI = 2 × P
⇒ (P × R × T / 100) = 2 × P
⇒ R × T / 100 = 2
⇒ R × T = 200
⇒ R × 10 = 200
⇒ R = 20%
Thus, the required rate of interest is 20%

Question: Akash lends a part of Tk. 20000 at 8% simple interest and remaining at (4/3)% simple interest. His total income after a year was Tk. 800. Find the sum lent at 8%.

Solution:
Amount lent at 8% rate of interest = Tk. x
Amount lent at 4/3 % rate of interest = Tk. (20000 - x)

∴ S.I. = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100
{(x × 8 × 1)/100} + [{(20000 - x) × (4/3) × 1}/100] = 800
⇒ (2x/25) + {(20000 - x)/75} = 800
⇒ (6x + 20000 - x)/75 = 800
⇒ 5x + 20,000 = 75 × 800 = 60000
⇒ 5x = 60,000 - 20000 = 4000
⇒ x = 40000/5

Question: If a sum triples in 15 years at simple interest, how much will it be in 10 years?

Solution:
Let, Principal = P

If the sum triples in 15 years,
Amount after 15 years = 3P

∴ Simple interest for 15 years = 3P - P
= 2P

So, Simple interest for 1 year = 2P/15

∴ Simple interest for 10 years = (2P/15) × 10
= 20P/15
= 4P/3

Amount after 10 years = P + 4P/3
= 7P/3

Hence, the sum will be = 7/3 times the principal.

Solution:
Given that,
Principal, P = Tk. 8,000
Rate, r = 10%
Time, n = 2 years

We know that,
Simple Interest = Pnr/100

And Compound Interest = P(1 + r/100)n - P
= 8000(1 + 10/100)2 - 8000
= 8000(11/10)2 - 8000
= 8000(1.21) - 8000
= 9680 - 8000
= 1680 Tk.

∴ Difference = 1680 - 1600 = 80 Tk.
The difference between compound and simple interest is Tk. 80.

Question: There is 60% increase in an amount in 6 years at simple interest. What will be the compound interest of 12,000 after 3 years at the same rate?

Solution:
Let,
the simple interest rate = r% 

Given,
60% increase in an amount in 6 years at simple interest
∴ If P = Tk. 100, then I = Tk. 60

Then,
I = Pnr/100
⇒ I/P = nr/100

⇒ 0.6 = 6r/100 
⇒ r = 10%

Now,
P = Tk. 12000
n = 3 years
r = 10%

We know,
The compound interest = P(1 + r)n - P
= 12000 (1.1)3 - 12000

C.I. when compounded yearly = Tk. [x × {1 + (4/100)} - x]
= Tk. {(26x/25) - x}
= Tk. x/25

∴ (609x/10000) - (x/25) = 104.50
⇒ (609x - 400x)/10000 = 104.50
⇒ 209x/10000 = 104.50

Question: The population of a village decreases at the rate of 25% per annum. If its population 2 years ago was 24000, the present population is =?

Solution: 
Given that,
The population of a village 2 years ago = 24000
Rate of growth = 25% p.a.
Time period = 2 years

Present population = P{(1 - (r/100)}n
= 24000 × {1 - (25/100)}2
= 24000 × {1 - (1/4)}2
= 24000 × (3/4)2
= 24000 × (9/16)
= 13500

Question: A certain sum of money becomes 2.5 times itself in 5 years at simple interest. What is the rate of interest per annum? 

Solution: 
Let the principal amount be P.
The sum becomes 2.5 times itself in 5 years.

So, A = 2.5P
∴ Simple Interest, I = 2.5P - P = 1.5 P

We know, I = Pnr/100
⇒ 1.5 P = (P × 5 × r)/100
⇒ 5r = 150
∴ r = 30%

Question: A sum of money at simple interest amount to tk. 4400 in 2 years and to tk. 4700 in 5 years at a rate of:

Solution: 
Simple interest for 3 years = (4700 - 4400) Tk.
= Tk. 300
Now, Simple Interest for 3 years =  Tk. 300
∴ Simple Interest for 5 years =  Tk. 300 × (5/3)
= Tk. 500

∴ Principal = 4700 - 500 = Tk. 4200

We know, 
I = Pnr
⇒ r = I/Pn
 ⇒ r = (500 × 100)/(4200 × 5)
∴ r = 2.3%

Find the value of ‘x’ if the difference between the interests earned by them after three is Tk. 1428.

Solution:
Robi invested Tk. ‘x’ in a scheme offering 15% p.a. simple interest for three years
∴ Simple interest = x × 3 × (15/100) = 9x/20 = 0.45x

Shami invested Tk. x in another scheme offering 10% p.a. compound interest for three years
∴ Compound interest = x(1 + 10/100)3 - x
= x × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 - x
= 1.331x - x
= 0.331x

ATQ,
0.45x - 0.331x = 1428
⇒ 0.119x = 1428
⇒ x = 1428/0.119
∴ x = 12000

Solution :
Given,
Compound interest = Tk. 5992.05
Time n = 4 years
Interest rate r = 15%
= 15/100
= 0.15

We know,
Compound interest = P(1 + r)n - P
⇒ 5992.05 = P{(1 + 0.15)4 - 1}
⇒ 5992.05 = P{(1.15)4 - 1}
⇒ 5992.05 = P(1.749 - 1)
⇒ 5992.05 = P × 0.749
⇒ P = 5992.05 ÷ 0.749
∴ P = 8000
