Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Salary in June 2024 = ₹22,385
Annual increase rate = 10%
Time (t) = 2 years
Formula used:
A = P(1 + r/100)t
Where,
A = Amount (Salary in June 2024)
P = Principal (Salary in June 2022)
r = Rate (10%)
t = Time (2 years)
Calculation:
22,385 = P(1 + 10/100)2
⇒ 22,385 = P(1 + 0.1)2
⇒ 22,385 = P(1.1)2
⇒ 22,385 = P(1.21)
⇒ P = 22,385 / 1.21
⇒ P = 18,500
∴ The correct answer is option (4).
