Question No: 17 ( Marks: 2 )

A man borrows $39000 for 1and half year at a rate of 1.65%. What is the simple interest he has to pay?

Simple interest is given by

I= P*R*T/100

P= principal = $39000

R= interest rate= 1.65%

T= 1.5 year

Interest, I =(39000 * 1.65 *1.5)/100 = Rs 965.25

Question No: 18 ( Marks: 2 )

If

Cost price = 2000Rs

Selling price = 6500Rs

Then what will be %Markup on cost?

MUC= S- C (Rs markup on cost = selling price- cost price)

= 6500-2000 = Rs 4500

% markup on cost = (MuC/cost price) * 100 = (4500/2000) *100= 225%

Question No: 19 ( Marks: 3 )

Write the output of B9, B10, B11 and B12. If you think the formula is incorrect write "Error" in output.

ANSWER:

The output of =sum(B3,B4,B5,B6) = 82

=multiply(B5,B6) will not give result because multiply is not a excel function

B4/B6 is not a formula because in excel formula must start with "="

=B4% will return 0.2

Question No: 20 ( Marks: 5 )

A gold chain is sold for Rs. 6500 at a gain of 25%. Find the profit.

Selling price = 6500

Profit = 25%

Profit in Rs= (6500*25)/100= Rs 1625

Question No: 21 ( Marks: 10 )

For the following matrices perform the indicated operation, if possible.

(a)

(b)

(c)

a)

A = 2 0 -3 2 + B = 0 -4 -7 2

-1 8 10 -5 12 3 7 9

A+B= 2+0 0-4 -3-7 2+2

-1+12 8+3 10+7 -5+9

A+B = 2 -4 -10 4

11 11 17 4

b)

B-A= 0-2 -4-0 -7-(-3) 2-2

12-(-1) 3-8 7-10 9-(-5)

B-A= -2 -4 -4 0

13 -5 -3 14

c) A+C is not conformable for addition because for addition number of rows and columns of A must be equal to number of rows and columns of C
