A. $12 \frac{1}{2} %$

B. $13 \frac{1}{2} %$

C. 15%

D. $16 \frac{2}{3} %$

Correct Answer :

C. 15%

Investment = Rs. [20 x (50 - 5)] = Rs. 900.
Face value = Rs. (50 x 20) = Rs. 1000.
Dividend =

R s . \frac{27}{2} \times \frac{1000}{100} = R s . 135 .

Interest obtained =

(\frac{135}{900} x 100) % = 15 %
