12. As per scheme a car loan of Rs. 4 lakh at 12.5 p.c.p. rate of simple interest can be borrowed on a repayment term of lump sum amount at the end of 3 years.
As per scheme (b), the amount can be repaid at the end of 2 years, but compound interest (compounded annually) would be charged at the same rate. What would be the difference in amount of interest between the two schemes?

Answer: Rs 43,750

Explanation:

Scheme ,
p=400000
r=12.5%
n=3
SI = 400000*3*12.5/100
SI = 150000
Total Sum = 550000
Scheme (b)
Amount = 400000[1 + 12.5/100]^2
=> 400000*[9/8 * 9/8]
Amount = 506250
Difference is 550000 - 506250 = Rs. 43750
