I purchased a bike for Rs 1056 in real money and sold it around the same time for Rs 1296 payable following 6 months. On the off chance that the rate of hobby is 12% p.a., what amount was my addition?
Answer: C
C.P. = Rs 1056
S.P. = P.W. of Rs 1296 due 6 months hence
= Rs. (100*1296)/(100+(12*1/2) ) = Rs ((100*1296))/106= 1200
∴ Profit = Rs (1200-1056) = Rs 144
Gain% = (144/1056*100)% = 13.6%
