Question 1.
Calculate the amount and compound interest on
(a) ā‚¹ 10,800 for 3 years at 12 \(\frac{1}{2}\) % per annum compounded annually.
(b) ā‚¹ 18,000 for 2 \(\frac{1}{2}\) years at 10% per annum compounded annually.
(c) ā‚¹ 62,500 for 1 \(\frac{1}{2}\) years at 8% per annum compounded half yearly.
(d) ā‚¹ 8,000 for 1 year at 9% per annum compounded half yearly.
(You could use the year by year calculation using SI formula to verify.)
(e) ā‚¹ 10,000 for 1 year at 8% per annum compounded half yearly.
Solution:
(a) Here, P = ā‚¹ 10800, T = 3 years,
R = 12 \(\frac{1}{2}\)% p.a.
We have: A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n
= \(ā‚¹ 10800\left[1+\frac{12 \frac{1}{2}}{100}\right]^{3}\)
[āˆµ Interest compound annually, āˆ“n = 3]
= ā‚¹ 10800 \(\frac{225}{100}\)3
= ā‚¹ 10800 Ɨ \(\frac{225}{100}\) Ɨ \(\frac{225}{100}\) Ɨ \(\frac{225}{100}\)
= ā‚¹ \(\frac{675Ɨ9Ɨ9Ɨ9}{4Ɨ8}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{492075}{32}\)
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 15377.34
Now, compound interest
= ā‚¹ 15377.34 – ā‚¹ 10800 = ā‚¹ 4577.34

(b) Here, P = ā‚¹ 18000, T = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)years,
R = 10% p.a.
āˆµ Interest is compounded annually,
n = 2 + \(\frac{1}{2}\)

= ā‚¹ 9 Ɨ 11 Ɨ 11 Ɨ 21 = ā‚¹ 22869
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 22869
CI = ā‚¹ 22869 – ā‚¹ 18000 = ā‚¹ 4869

(c) Here P = ā‚¹ 62500, T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) r = 8% p.a.
Compounded half yearly,
R = 8% p.a. = 4% per half year
T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)year ā†’ n = 3 half years.
āˆ“ Amount = P(1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\))n
= ā‚¹ 62500 (1 + \(\frac{4}{100}\))3 = ā‚¹ 62500 (\(\frac{26}{25}\))3
= ā‚¹ 62500 Ɨ \(\frac{26}{25}\) Ɨ \(\frac{26}{25}\) Ɨ \(\frac{26}{25}\)
= ā‚¹ 4 Ɨ 26 Ɨ 26 26 = ā‚¹ 70304
Amount = ā‚¹ 70304
CI = ā‚¹ 70304 – ā‚¹ 62500 = ā‚¹ 7804

(d) Here, P = ā‚¹ 8000, T = 1 year, R = 9% p.a.
Interest is compounded half yearly,
āˆ“ T = 1 year = 2 half years
R = 9% p.a. = \(\frac{9}{2}\)% half yearly
āˆ“ Amount = P(1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\))n
= ā‚¹ 8000 Ɨ (1 + \(\frac{9}{200}\))2
= ā‚¹ 8000 Ɨ \(\frac{209}{200}\) Ɨ \(\frac{209}{200}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{2 Ɨ 209 Ɨ 209}{10}\)
= ā‚¹ \(\frac{87362}{10}\) = ā‚¹ 8736.20
CI = ā‚¹ 8736.20 – ā‚¹ 8000 = ā‚¹ 736.20

(e) Here, P = ā‚¹ 10000, T = 1 year
R = 8% p.a. compunded half yearly.
āˆ“ R = 8% p.a. = 4% per half yearly
T = 1 year ā†’ n = 2 Ɨ 1 = 2
Now, amount = P(1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\))n
= ā‚¹ 10,000 (1 + \(\frac{4}{100}\))2 = ā‚¹ 10,000 (\(\frac{26}{25}\))2
= ā‚¹ 10,000 Ɨ \(\frac{26}{25}\) Ɨ \(\frac{26}{25}\)
CI = ā‚¹ 10816 – ā‚¹ 10000 = ā‚¹ 816.

Question 2.
Kamala borrowed ā‚¹ 26,400 from a Bank to buy a scooter at a rate of 15% p.a. compounded yearly What amount will she pay at the end of 2 years and 4 months to clear the loan?
(Hint: Find A for 2 years with interest is compounded yearly and then find SI on the 2nd year for \(\frac{4}{12}\) years.)
Solution:
Note: Here, we shall calculate the amount for 2 years using the CI formula. Then this amount will become the principal for next 4 months, i.e., \(\frac{4}{12}\) years.
Here, P = ā‚¹ 26400, T = 2 years, R = 15% p.a
A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n = ā‚¹ 26400[1 + \(\frac{15}{100}\)]2
= ā‚¹ 26400 Ɨ \(\frac{23}{20}\)2 = ā‚¹ 26400 Ɨ \(\frac{23}{20}\) Ɨ \(\frac{23}{20}\)
= ā‚¹ 66 Ɨ 23 Ɨ 23 = ā‚¹ 34914
Again, P = 34914. T = 4 months = \(\frac{4}{12}\) years,
R = 15% p.a.
āˆ“ Using, SI = \(\frac{PƗRƗT}{100}\), we have
SI = ā‚¹ \(\frac{5819Ɨ3}{10}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{17457}{10}\) = ā‚¹ 1745.70
Amount = SI + P
= ā‚¹ (1745.70 + 34914) = ā‚¹ 36659.70
Thus, the required amount to be paid to the bank after 2 years 4 month = ā‚¹ 36659.70

Question 3.
Fabina borrows 12,500 at 12% per annum for 3 years al simple interest and Radha borrows the same amount for the same time period at 10% per annum, compounded annually. Who pays more interest and by how much?
Solution:
For Fabina
P = ā‚¹ 12500, T = 3 years, R = 12% p.a.
āˆ“ SI = \(\frac{PƗRƗT}{100}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{12500Ɨ3Ɨ12}{100}\)
= ā‚¹ 125 Ɨ 3 Ɨ 12 = ā‚¹ 4500
For Radha P = ā‚¹ 12500, T = 3 years
R = 10% p.a. (Compounded annually)

GSEB Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 8 Comparing Quantities Ex 8.3 img 2a
āˆ“ CI = ā‚¹ 16637.5 – ā‚¹ 12500 = ā‚¹ 4137.50
Difference = ā‚¹ 4500 – ā‚¹ 4137.50 = ā‚¹ 362.50
Thus, Fabina pays ā‚¹ 362. 50 more.

Question 4.
I borrowed ā‚¹ 12,000 from Jamshed at 6% per annum simple interest for 2 years. Had I borrowed this sum at 6% per annum compound interest, what extra amount would I have to pay?
Solution:
For SI
Principal = ā‚¹ 12000; Time = 2 years
Rate = 6% p.a.
SI = \(\frac{PƗRƗT}{100}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{12000Ɨ2Ɨ6}{100}\)
= ā‚¹ (120 Ɨ 2 Ɨ 6) = ā‚¹ 1440
For CI
Principal = ā‚¹ 12000; Time = 2 years
Rate = 6% p.a.
GSEB Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 8 Comparing Quantities Ex 8.3 img 3
āˆ“ CI = ā‚¹ 13483. 20 – ā‚¹ 12000 = ā‚¹ 1483.20
Thus, excess amount = ā‚¹ 1483.20 – ā‚¹ 1440 = ā‚¹ 43.20

Question 5.
Vasudevan invested ā‚¹ 60,000 at an interest rate of 12% per annum compounded half yearly. What amount would he get
(i) after 6 months?
(ii) after 1 year?
Solution:
(i) Amount after 6 months
P = ā‚¹ 60000, T = \(\frac{1}{2}\) year, n = 1
[āˆµ Interest is compounded half yearly]
R = 12% p.a. = 6% per half year
āˆ“ Amount = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n
= ā‚¹ 6000 [1 + \(\frac{6}{100}\)]1 = ā‚¹ 60000 Ɨ \(\frac{53}{50}\)
= ā‚¹ 1200 Ɨ 53 = ā‚¹ 63600

(ii) Amount after 1 year
P = ā‚¹ 60000
T = 1 year; n = 2
R = 12% p.a. = 6% per half year
āˆ“ Amount = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n
= ā‚¹ 60000 Ɨ [1 + \(\frac{6}{100}\)]2
= ā‚¹ 60000 Ɨ \(\frac{53}{50}\) Ɨ \(\frac{53}{50}\) = ā‚¹ 24 Ɨ 53 Ɨ 53
= ā‚¹ 67416
Thus, amount after 6 months = ā‚¹ 63600 and amount after 1 year = ā‚¹ 67416

(i) Compounded annually.
(ii) Compounded half yearly.
Solution:
(i) Compounded annually
P = 80000 R = 10% p.a.
T = \(\frac{1}{2}\) years ā‡’ n = 1 + \(\frac{1}{2}\) T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) years
Amount for 1st year.
A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n = ā‚¹ 80000 Ɨ [1 + \(\frac{10}{100}\)]1
= ā‚¹ 80000 Ɨ \(\frac{10}{100}\) Ɨ \(\frac{1}{2}\) = ā‚¹ 88000
SI on ā‚¹ 88000 for next \(\frac{1}{2}\) year
= ā‚¹ 88000 Ɨ \(\frac{10}{100}\) Ɨ \(\frac{1}{2}\) = ā‚¹ 440 Ɨ 10 = ā‚¹ 4400
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 88000 + ā‚¹ 44000 = ā‚¹ 92400

(ii) Compounded half yearly
P = ā‚¹ 80000 P = ā‚¹ 80000
R = 10% p.a.
R = 10% p.a. = 5% per half year
T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) years ā‡’ n = 1 + \(\frac{1}{2}\) T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) years
ā‡’ n = 3
Amount for 1st year.
GSEB Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 8 Comparing Quantities Ex 8.3 img 4
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 88000 + ā‚¹ 44000 = ā‚¹ 92400
Thus, the difference between the two amounts = ā‚¹ 92610 – ā‚¹ 92400 = ā‚¹ 210

Question 7.
Maria invested ā‚¹ 8,000 in a business. She would be paid interest at 5% per annum compounded annually. Find:
(i) The amount credited against her name at the end of the second year.
(ii) The interest for the 3rd year.
Solution:
Principal = ā‚¹ 8000
Rate = 5% p.a. compounded annually
(i) Time = 2 years ā‡’ n = 2
āˆ“ Amount = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n
= ā‚¹ 8000[1 + \(\frac{5}{100}\)]2 = ā‚¹ 8000 Ɨ \(\left[\frac{21}{20}\right]^{2}\)
= ā‚¹ 8000 Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\) Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\) = ā‚¹ (20 Ɨ 21 Ɨ 21)
= ā‚¹ 8820
āˆ“ Amount credited against her name at the end of the two years = ā‚¹ 8820

(ii) Time = 3 years ā‡’ n = 3
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 8000[1 + \(\frac{5}{100}\)]3
= ā‚¹ 8000 \(\left[\frac{21}{20}\right]^{3}\) = ā‚¹ 8000 Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\) Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\) Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\)
= ā‚¹ (21 Ɨ 21 Ɨ 21) = ā‚¹ 9261
āˆµ Interest paid during 3rd year
= [Amount at the end of 3rd year] – [Amount at the end of 2nd year]
= ā‚¹ 9261 – ā‚¹ 8820 = ā‚¹ 441

Question 8.
Find the amount and the compound interest on ā‚¹ 10,000 for 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) years at 10% per annum, compounded half yearly. Would this interest be more than the interest he would get if it was compounded annually?
Solution:
Principal = ā‚¹ 10,000 Time = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
Rate = 10% p.a.

Case I:
Interest is compounded half yearly
We have r = 10 p.a. = 5% per half yearly
T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) years ā‡’ n = 3
āˆ“ A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n = ā‚¹ 10000[1 + \(\frac{5}{100}\)]3
= ā‚¹ \(\frac{5Ɨ21Ɨ21Ɨ21}{4}\) = ā‚¹ \(\frac{46305}{4}\) = ā‚¹ 11576.25
āˆ“ Amount = ā‚¹ 11576.25
Now CI = Amount – Principal
= ā‚¹ 11576.25 – ā‚¹ 10,000 = ā‚¹ 1576.25

Case II:
Interest is compounded annually
We have R = 10% p.a. T = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)year
Amount for 1 year = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n
= ā‚¹ 10000 Ɨ [1 + \(\frac{10}{100}\)]1 = ā‚¹ 10000 Ɨ \(\frac{11}{10}\)
= ā‚¹ 11000
āˆ“ Interest for 1st year = ā‚¹ 11000 – ā‚¹ 10,000
= ā‚¹ 1000
āˆ“ Interest for next \(\frac{1}{2}\)year on ā‚¹ 11000
= \(\frac{PƗRƗT}{100}\) = ā‚¹ 11000 Ɨ \(\frac{10}{100}\) Ɨ \(\frac{1}{2}\) = ā‚¹ 550
āˆ“ Total interest = ā‚¹ 1000 + ā‚¹ 550 = ā‚¹ 1550
Since ā‚¹ 1576.25 > ā‚¹ 1550
āˆ“ Interest would be more in case if it is compounded half yearly.

Question 9.
Find the amount which Ram will get on ā‚¹ 4096, if he gave it for 18 months at 12\(\frac{1}{2}\)% per annum, interest being compounded half yearly?
Solution:
We have P = ā‚¹ 4096 T = 18 months
R = 12\(\frac{1}{2}\)% p.a.
āˆµ Interest is compounded half yearly.
T = 18 months ā‡’ n = \(\frac{18}{6}\) = 3 six months
R = 12\(\frac{1}{2}\)% p.a. ā‡’ R = (12\(\frac{1}{2}\) Ć· 2)% per half year.
= (\(\frac{25}{2}\) Ɨ \(\frac{1}{2}\))% = \(\frac{25}{4}\)% half yearly
Now, A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n = ā‚¹ 4096 Ɨ [1 + \(\frac{25}{100}\)]3
= ā‚¹ 4096 Ɨ \(\frac{17}{16}\)3 = ā‚¹ 4096 Ɨ \(\frac{17}{16}\) Ɨ \(\frac{17}{16}\) Ɨ \(\frac{17}{16}\)
= ā‚¹ (17 Ɨ 17 Ɨ 17) = ā‚¹ 4913
Thus, the required amount = ā‚¹ 4913

Question 10.
The population of a place increased to 54,000 in 2003 at a rate of 5% per annum?
(i) Find the population in 2001.
(ii) What would be its population is 2005?
Solution:
Population in 2003 is P = 54000
(i) Let the population in 2001 (i.e., 2 years ago) be P
Since rate of increment in population = 5% p.a.
āˆ“ Present population = P(1 + \(\frac{5}{100}\)]2
or 54000 = P(\(\frac{21}{20}\)]2 or 5400 = P(\(\frac{441}{400}\))
or P = \(\frac{54000 Ɨ 400}{441}\) = 48979.59
= 48980 (approx)
Thus, the population in 2001 was about 48980

(ii) Initial population (in 2003). i.e., P = 54000
Rate of increment in population = 5% pa.
Time = 2 years ā‡’ n = 2
āˆ“ A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]2 = 54000 Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\) Ɨ \(\frac{21}{20}\)
= 135 Ɨ 21 Ɨ 21 = 59535
Thus, the population in 2005 = 59535.

Solution:
Initial count of bactena (P) = 5,06,000
Increasing rate (R) = 2.5% per hour
Time (T) = 2 hours ā‡’ n = 2
GSEB Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 8 Comparing Quantities Ex 8.3 img 5
= 53161625 or 531616 (approx.)
Thus, the count of bacteria after 2 hours will be 531616 (appiox.)

Question 12.
A scooter was bought at ā‚¹ 42,000 has value depredated at the raie of 8% per annum. Find its value after one year?
Solution:
Initial cost (value) of the scooter (P) = ā‚¹ 42000
Depreciation rate = 8% p.a.
Time = 1 year ā‡’ n = 1
Using A = P[1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\)]n, we have
A = ā‚¹ 42000 Ɨ [1 – \(\frac{8}{100}\)]1
= ā‚¹ 42000 Ɨ \(\frac{92}{100}\) = ā‚¹ 420 Ɨ 92 = ā‚¹ 38640
Thus, the value of the scooter after 1 year will be ā‚¹ 38640.
