Answers:

1.(5); Production for the year 2010=70X(108/100)X(108/100)X(108/100) Lakh

=88.179 Lakh

2.(2); R=8%

R % for C.I.=16.64

C.I.=(1250X16.64)/100

= 208

3.(3); R=8%

R % for C.I.=8.16

C.I.=(4500X8.16)/100=367.2

4.(5); C.I.=P[(1+(r/100)^n)-1]

=5690[(1+(5/100)^3)-1]

=896.886

5.(5); C.I.=18000[(1+(10/100)^3)-1]

=5958

6.(3); Difference=(PR^2)/(100^2)

128=(PX8^2)/100^2

P=20,000

7.(1); C.I.=P[(1+(10/100)^5)-1]=

610.51

8.(5); R=10%

R% for C.I.=21%

C.I.=(12000X21)/100

=2520

9.(1); R%=(96.80-88)x100/(88)=10%

10%=88

100%=880

10.(3); P=(358.75X100)/(5X1)=7175

C.I.=7175[(1+(5/100)^3)-1]=1130.9

=1131
