A cell-phone is available for Rs. 2500 cash or Rs. 520 cash down payments followed by 4 equal monthly installments. If the rate of interest charged is 25% per annum, calculate the monthly installment.

A. 520

B. 480

C. 550

D. none of these

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Cost Price of phone  = Rs. 2500

Down Payment = Rs. 520
Loan Taken(P)= 2500 - 520 = Rs. 1980.
No. of installments (n)= 4
Rate (R)= 25% per annum = 25/12 = 2.08 per month.
Installments Amount = P *R (1+R)^n / ((1+R)^n - 1)
Installments Amount = 1980 * 2.08 * (1 + 2.08)^4 / ((1+ 2.08)^4 -1)

Installments Amount = 1980 * 2.08 *90 / (90 -1) = Rs. 4164.
