The correct Answer is:
Let's solve the problem step by step. ### Given: - Dividend rate = 15% - Face value of shares = ₹100 - Premium = 20% ### Step 1: Find the income from one share. The income from one share can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Income from one share} = \text{Dividend} = \left(\frac{\text{Dividend rate}}{100} \times \text{Face value}\right) \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Income from one share} = \left(\frac{15}{100} \times 100\right) = 15 \text{ rupees} \] ### Step 2: Find the number of shares bought to have an income of ₹6480. To find the number of shares, we use the formula: \[ \text{Number of shares} = \frac{\text{Total income}}{\text{Income from one share}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Number of shares} = \frac{6480}{15} = 432 \] ### Step 3: Find the total sum invested. To find the total sum invested, we first need to calculate the market value of one share. The market value can be calculated as: \[ \text{Market value} = \text{Face value} + \text{Premium} = 100 + \left(\frac{20}{100} \times 100\right) = 100 + 20 = 120 \text{ rupees} \] Now, we can calculate the total investment: \[ \text{Total investment} = \text{Number of shares} \times \text{Market value} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Total investment} = 432 \times 120 = 51840 \text{ rupees} \] ### Summary of Answers: (i) Income from one share = ₹15 (ii) Number of shares bought = 432 (iii) Total sum invested = ₹51,840 ---
