Question

In a bank, 6% interest is given on the deposited amount. The bank then invests the money in the stock market and is able to earn ₹30,000 for every ₹3,00,000. How much money is the bank earning finally if the total amount deposited in the bank is ₹60,00,000?

A.

₹3,00,000

B.

₹6,40,000

C.

₹2,40,000

D.

₹3,60,000

Correct option is C

Given:
Interest given by the bank to depositors = 6% of the total deposit
The bank earns ₹30,000 for every ₹3,00,000 invested in the stock market.
Total amount deposited in the bank = ₹60,00,000.
Formula Used:
Interest = Interest rate100×Total deposit\frac{\text{Interest rate}}{100} \times \text{Total deposit}​​
Earnings = Total deposit3,00,000×30,000\frac{\text{Total deposit}}{3,00,000} \times 30,000​​
Solution:
The bank pays 6% interest on the deposited amount of ₹60,00,000:
Interest paid = 6100×60,00,000=3,60,000\frac{6}{100} \times 60,00,000 = 3,60,000​​
The bank earns ₹30,000 for every ₹3,00,000 invested. Since the total amount deposited is ₹60,00,000,
Stock market earnings = 60,00,0003,00,000×30,000\frac{60,00,000}{3,00,000} \times 30,000​​
20×30,00020 \times 30,000​ = 6,00,000
Final earnings = 6,00,000 − 3,60,000 =  ₹2,40,000
