Simple Interest installment tricks
Que: The Rs 17500 smartphone is available in 5 equated monthly installments after a down payment of Rs 1100. If the rate of simple interest is 15% per annum, then find the amount of the installment.
Solution: The monthly rate of interest= (15/12)%=(5/4)%=5/400=1/80
Note: 1 rs interest per month on the principal of 80.
Amount Payable= 17500–1100= 16400
Let the Principal of 16400= 80k
Total amount after 5 months= Principal+ Interest
Let, the amount of each installment is 80x
The first installment of 80x becomes 84x at the end if not paid
The second installment of 80x becomes 83x at the end if not paid
The third installment of 80x becomes 82x at the end if not paid
The fourth installment of 80x becomes 81x at the end if not paid
The last installment is 80x
Total payable amount at the end= (84+83+82+81+80).x
So, Amont of each installment= 80x= 3400/-
