The correct Answer is:
To find Siddhartha Ghosh's total commission over the 10-year period, we will calculate his commission for each year based on the given rates and then sum them up. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the First Year Commission:** - Commission Rate: 20% - Annual Premium: Rs. 20,000 - First Year Commission = (20/100) * 20,000 = Rs. 4,000 2. **Calculate the Bonus for the First Year:** - Bonus = 25% of First Year Commission - Bonus = (25/100) * 4,000 = Rs. 1,000 3. **Calculate the Second Year Commission:** - Commission Rate: 16% - Second Year Commission = (16/100) * 20,000 = Rs. 3,200 4. **Calculate the Third Year Commission:** - Commission Rate: 12% - Third Year Commission = (12/100) * 20,000 = Rs. 2,400 5. **Calculate the Fourth Year Commission:** - Commission Rate: 10% - Fourth Year Commission = (10/100) * 20,000 = Rs. 2,000 6. **Calculate the Commission for the Remaining Six Years:** - Commission Rate: 4% - Remaining Years Commission = 6 years * (4/100) * 20,000 - Remaining Years Commission = 6 * (0.04 * 20,000) = 6 * 800 = Rs. 4,800 7. **Total Commission Calculation:** - Total Commission = First Year Commission + Bonus + Second Year Commission + Third Year Commission + Fourth Year Commission + Remaining Years Commission - Total Commission = 4,000 + 1,000 + 3,200 + 2,400 + 2,000 + 4,800 - Total Commission = Rs. 17,400 ### Final Total Commission: - Total Commission = Rs. 17,400
