The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Let the amounts invested in 2012 in Companies P and Q be Rs. 8 x and Rs. 9x respectively.
Then, interest received after one year from Company P = 6\(\%\) of 8x
\(=\frac{48}{100}x\)
and interest received after one year from Company Q = 4\(\%\) of 9x
\(=\frac{36}{100}x\)
Required ratio \(=\frac{48x}{100}:\frac{36x}{100}\)
= 4 : 3.So the correct option is (D)

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Let Rs. x lakhs be invested in Company P in 2010, the amount invested in Company Q in 2010 = Rs. (30 - x) lakhs.
Total interest received from the two Companies after 1 year = 2.43 =
= Rs. [(7.5\(\%\) of x) + {9\(\%\) of (30 - x)}] lakhs
Solving for x, we get
x = 18 lakhs. So the correct option is (C)
Total interest received from the two Companies after 1 year = 2.43 =
= Rs. [(7.5\(\%\) of x) + {9\(\%\) of (30 - x)}] lakhs
Solving for x, we get
x = 18 lakhs. So the correct option is (C)

The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Amount received from Company P after one year (i.e., in 2009) on investing Rs. 12 lakhs in it
Rs. [12 + (8\(\%\) of 12)] lakhs
= 12.96 lakhs
Amount received from Company P after one year on investing Rs. 12.96 lakhs in the year 2009:
= Rs. [12.96 + (10\(\%\) of 12.96)] lakhs
= 14.256 lakhs
Appreciation received on investment during the period of two years
= Rs. (14.256 - 12) lakhs
= Rs. 2.256 lakhs
= Rs. 2,25,600. So the correct option is (D)
Rs. [12 + (8\(\%\) of 12)] lakhs
= 12.96 lakhs
Amount received from Company P after one year on investing Rs. 12.96 lakhs in the year 2009:
= Rs. [12.96 + (10\(\%\) of 12.96)] lakhs
= 14.256 lakhs
Appreciation received on investment during the period of two years
= Rs. (14.256 - 12) lakhs
= Rs. 2.256 lakhs
= Rs. 2,25,600. So the correct option is (D)

Difference = Rs. [(10\(\%\) of 4.75) - (8\(\%\) of 4.75)] lakhs
= Rs. (2\(\%\) of 4.75) lakhs
= Rs. 0.095 lakhs
= Rs. 95000. So the correct option is (D)
= Rs. (2\(\%\) of 4.75) lakhs
= Rs. 0.095 lakhs
