= (120 * 110) / (120 -110)
= 1320
5. The banker's discount on Rs. 1650 due a certain time hence is Rs. 165. Find the true discount and the banker's gain.
A. 15
B. 20
C. 18
D. 13
Answer Ans: Option A
Explanation:
Sum = [(B.D.xT.D.)/ (B.D.-T.D.)]
= [(B.D.xT.D.)/B.G.]
T.D./B.G. = Sum/ B.D.
=1650/165
=10
Thus, if B.G. is Re 1, T.D. = Rs. 10.
If B.D.is Rs. ll, T.D.=Rs. 10.
If B.D. is Rs. 165, T.D. = Rs. [(10/11)xl65]
=Rs.150
And, B.G. = Rs. (165 – 150) = Rs, 15.

10. A bill for Rs. 6000 is drawn on July 14 at 5 months. It is discounted on 5th October at 10%. Find the banker's discount, true discount, banker's gain and the money that the holder of the bill receives.
A. 4390
B. 6580
C. 5880
D. 5350
Answer
Explanation:
Face value of the bill = Rs. 6000.
Date on which the bill was drawn = July 14 at 5 months. Nominally due date = December 14.
Legally due date = December 17.
Date on which the bill was discounted = October 5.
Unexpired time : Oct. Nov. Dec.
26 + 30 + 17 = 73 days =1/ 5Years
B.D. = S.I. on Rs. 6000 for 1/5 year
= Rs. (6000 x 10 x1/5 x1/100)= Rs. 120.
T.D. = Rs.[(6000 x 10 x1/5)/(100+(10*1/5))]
=Rs.(12000/102)=Rs. 117.64.
B.G. = (B.D.) – (T.D.) = Rs. (120 – 117.64) = Rs. 2.36.
Money received by the holder of the bill = Rs. (6000 – 120) = Rs. 5880.

S.I on Rs 1800 = T.D on Rs 1872
P.W of Rs 1872 is Rs 1800
Rs 72 is S.I on Rs 1800 at 12%
Time = (100 72)/(12 1800)
= 1/3 years = 4 months
