On an Edu tech website, the selling price of an online course after giving a 70% festival discount offer is ₹ 750. What is the rate of course on normal days which gives a 30% discount on the marked price?1. ₹ 18002. ₹ 25003. ₹ 17504. ₹ 19505. ₹  1450

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : ₹ 1750

Given:

Selling price = ₹ 750

Festival Discount = 70%

Normal Discount = 30%

Formula used :

SP = MP × (100 - D)/100

Calculation:

Substituting the values in the formula

750 = MP × (100 - 70)/100

750 × 10/3 = MP     

Marked price = ₹ 2500       ----(i)

Substituting the (i) in the formula

SP on normal days = 2500 × (100 - 30)/100

SP on normal days = ₹ 1750

∴ Selling price on normal days is ₹ 1750

Ram and Sita invested capital in the ratio 4 : 5. The time Sita invested her money for was one year lesser than that invested by Ram. The ratio of their profits is is in the ratio 6 : 7. Find the time Sita invested the money for?1. 152. 133. 124. 14

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 14

Given:

Ram and Sita invested capital in the ratio 4 : 5. The time Sita invested her money for was one year lesser than that invested by Ram. The ratio of their profits is is in the ratio 6 : 7.

Formula:

Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time

Calculation:

Let the money invested by Rama and Sita be 4x and 5x respectively.

Let the time they invested for be t and t – 1 respectively.

Ratio of profit = 4xt/5x(t-1)

⇒ 4xt/{5x (t-1)} = 6/7

⇒ 4t/{5(t-1)} = 6/7

⇒ 28t = 30t – 30

⇒ 2t = 30

⇒ t = 15

Time Sita invested for = t – 1 = 15 – 1 = 14 years

∴ The time Sita invested the money for is 14 years.

A invested 17800 for 12 months. B invested a certain amount for 6 months and further increased the amount by 500 for the next 6 months. The ratio of profit for A and B at the end of the year is 26/25. Find the initial amount invested by B?1. 168652. 109863. 159894. 18945

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 16865

Given:

A invested 17800 for 12 months. B invested a certain amount for 6 months and further increased the amount by 500 for the next 6 months. The ratio of profit for A and B at the end of the year is 26/25..

Formula:

Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time

Calculation:

ATQ,

Profit sharing ratio = investment × time

Let B invested Rs x initially

A/B= 17800 × 12/6x + (x + 500) × 6 = 26/25

213600/12x + 3000 = 26/25

5340000 = 26(12x + 3000)

x = 5262000/312 = 16865

A invested a certain amount in a business for 6 months. B invested 1000 more than that invested by A for six months. After 6 months, A decreased his capital by 1000. At the same time, B also decreased his investment by 1000. The ratio of their profit after one year is 37 : 39. Find the amount B invested in the initial six months.1. 180002. 170003. 190004. 20000

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 20000

Given:

A invested a certain amount in a business for 6 months. B invested 1000 more than that invested by A for six months. After 6 months, A decreased his capital by 1000. At the same time, B also decreased his investment by 1000. The ratio of their profit after one year is 37 : 39.

Formula:

Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time

Calculation:

Let the amount invested by A each for six months be x and x – 1000.

Let the amount invested by B each for six months be x + 1000 and x.

(6x + 6(x - 1000))/(6(x + 1000) + 6x) = 37/39

(2x - 1000)/(2x + 1000) = 37/39

x = 19000

The amount B invested in the initial six months = x + 1000 = 19000 + 1000 = Rs. 20000

∴ The amount B invested in the initial six months  is Rs.20000.

‘The accounting concepts concepts and accounting standards are generally referred to as the essence of financial accounting’.comment.

Answer»

Financial accounting is concerned with the preparation of the financial statements and provides financial information to various accounting users. It is performed according to the basic accounting concepts like Business Entity, Money Measurement, Consistency, Conservatism, etc. These concepts allow various alternatives to treat the same transaction. For example, there are a number of methods available for calculating stock and depreciation, which can be followed by various firms. This leads to wrong interpretation of financial results by external users due to the problem of inconsistency and incomparability of financial results among different business entities. In order to mitigate inconsistency and incomparability and to bring uniformity in preparation of the financial statements, accounting standards are being issued in India by the Institute of Chartered Accountant of India. Accounting standards help in removing ambiguities and inconsistencies. Hence, accounting standards and accounting concepts are referred as the essence of financial accounting.

X and Y invested a total of Rs. 65200 in their business for 4 months. X then, decreased his amount by 10000 for the next 8 months. Y increased his amount by 12000 for the next 8 months. The ratio of their profit is 250/249. Find initial amount invested by X.1. 560002. 480003. 400004. 44000

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 40000

Given:

X and Y invested a total of Rs. 65200 in their business for 4 months.

X then, decreased his amount by Rs. 10000 for the next 8 months.

Y increased his amount by Rs. 12000 for the next 8 months.

The ratio of their profit is 250/249.

Formula Used:

Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time

Calculation:

Let X invested Rs. X and Y invested Rs. (65200 – x)

X                                                                    y

X [For 4 months]                                           (65200 – x) [For 4 months]

(x – 10000) [For next 8 months]                   (77200 – x) [For next 8 months]

⇒ {x × 4 + (x - 10000) × 8}/{4 × (65200 - x) + (77200 - x) × 8} = 250/249

⇒ (12x - 80000)/(878400 – 12x) = 250/249

⇒ x = 40000

∴ Initial amount invested by X was Rs. 40000

Solve: \( \cos ^{2}\left(x+\frac{\pi}{3}\right)=\sin ^{2}\left(\frac{-\pi}{3}-x\right) \)

Answer»

\(cos^2(x + \frac\pi3) = sin^2(\frac{-\pi}3-x)\)

⇒ \(cos^2(x + \frac\pi3) = sin^2(x + \frac\pi3)\)   \((\because sin(-\theta)= -sin\theta)\)

⇒ \(cos^2(x + \frac\pi3)- sin^2(x + \frac \pi3) = 0\)

⇒ \(cos(2(x + \frac \pi3)) =0 = cos\frac\pi2\)   \((\because cos^2\theta -sin^2\theta = cos2\theta)\)

⇒ \(2(x + \frac\pi3) = 2n\pi \pm \frac \pi 2\)

⇒ \(x + \frac \pi3 = n\pi \pm \frac \pi 4\)

⇒ \(x= n\pi \pm \frac\pi4 - \frac\pi3\)

⇒ \(x = n\pi + \frac \pi 4 - \frac\pi3 \; or\; n\pi - \frac\pi4 - \frac\pi3\)

⇒ \(x = n\pi - \frac \pi{12} \;or\; n\pi - \frac{7\pi}{12}, n\in Z\).

Differentiate : tan-1(x+sqrt(1+x^2) w.r.to tan-1x/1+sqrt(1+x^2) \(tan^{-1} (x + \sqrt {1 + x^2})\)\(\frac {tan^{-1}x}{1 + \sqrt{1 + x^2}}\)

Answer»

\(u = tan^{-1} (x + \sqrt {1 + x^2})\)

\(v = \frac {tan^{-1}x}{1 + \sqrt{1 + x^2}}\)

\(\frac{d u}{d x} = \frac{1}{1 + (x + \sqrt{1 + x^2})^2} \;\frac {d}{dx} (x + \sqrt{1+ x^2})\)

\(= \frac{1}{2(x^2 + 1) + 2x\sqrt{1 + x^2}} \times \left(1 + \frac{2x}{2\sqrt{1 + x^2}}\right)\)

\(= \frac 1{2\sqrt{x^2 + 1} .(\sqrt{x^2 + 1}+x)} \times \frac {x + \sqrt{1 +x^2}}{\sqrt {1 +x^2}}\)

\(=\frac 1{2(1 +x^2)}\)

\(\frac{d v}{d x} = \cfrac{(1 + \sqrt {1 +x^2})\times \frac 1{1+x^2} - tan^{-1}x \times\frac{2x}{2\sqrt{1 + x^2}}}{(1+ \sqrt{1 +x^2})^2}\)

\(=\cfrac {\frac{1 + \sqrt{1 +x^2}}{1 + x^2} - \frac{xtan^{-1}x}{\sqrt{1 + x^2}}}{( 1 + \sqrt{1 + x^2})^2}\)

\(= \frac{1 + \sqrt {1 + x^2} - x\sqrt{1 + x^2}tan^{-1}x}{( 1 + x^2) ( 1+ \sqrt{ 1 +x^2})^2}\)

\(\cfrac{d\,tan^{-1} (x + \sqrt{ 1+ x^2})}{d\left(\frac{tan^{-1}x}{1 + \sqrt{1 + x^2}}\right)} = \frac {du}{dv} = \cfrac{\frac{du}{dx}}{\frac{d v}{d x}}\)

\(= \cfrac{\frac1{2( 1 + x^2)}}{\frac{1+ \sqrt{1+ x^2} (1- x\,tan^{-1}x)}{(1+x^2) (1+ \sqrt{1+ x^2})^2}} \)

In how many ways the word ASSASSIN can be arranged so that the vowels always comes together?1. 902. 923. 844. 865. 80

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 90

Given:

The word is ASSASSIN containing 3 vowels and 5 consonants.

Calculation:

If vowels come together, we can assume the three vowels as one single letter.

In that case, number of letters in the word = 5 + 1 = 6

Number of ways that can be arranged = 6! / 4! [It contains 4 ‘S’s]

Number of ways the vowels can be arranged between themselves = 3! / 2! [It has 2 ‘A’s]

Required number of ways = 6! / 4! × 3! / 2! = 90 ways
