Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Sum of the 12 years age }} \cr & {\text{ = Rs}}{\text{. 100000}} \cr & {\text{Sum of the 18 years age }} \cr & = {\text{P}} + \frac{{{\text{P}} \times {\text{R}} \times {\text{T}}}}{{100}} \cr & = {\text{100000}} + \frac{{100000 \times 6 \times 6}}{{100}} \cr & = {\text{100000}} + {\text{36000}} \cr & = {\text{136000}} \cr} $$
Total expenses
= 2500 + 500 = 3000 per year
Total expenses ( 6 years )
= 3000 × 6 = Rs. 18000
Amount obtained
= 136000 - 18000
= 118000
