The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Monthly drawings = ₹ 20,000
Number of months = 12
Total drawings in the year = ₹ 20,000 × 12 = ₹ 2,40,000 Step 2: Interest on drawings when withdrawn at beginning of every month: \[ \text{Interest} = \frac{Total Drawings × Rate × (n+1)}{2 × 12 × 100} \] \[ = \frac{2,40,000 × 6 × 13}{2 × 12 × 100} = ₹ 3,600 \]
