The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the calculations for Gagan's investments and returns from the shares. ### Step 1: Calculate the Market Value of Each Share Type 1. **For the 10% Rs. 100 shares at 20% premium:** - Market Value (MV) = Nominal Value + Premium - MV = 100 + (20% of 100) = 100 + 20 = Rs. 120 2. **For the 20% Rs. 50 shares at 20% discount:** - Market Value (MV) = Nominal Value - Discount - MV = 50 - (20% of 50) = 50 - 10 = Rs. 40 ### Step 2: Define the Total Savings Let the total savings be denoted as \( TS \). ### Step 3: Calculate Investments in Each Share Type 1. **Investment in 10% Rs. 100 shares:** - Investment = 80% of total savings = \( 0.8 \times TS \) 2. **Investment in 20% Rs. 50 shares:** - Investment = 20% of total savings = \( 0.2 \times TS \) ### Step 4: Calculate the Number of Shares Purchased 1. **Number of 10% Rs. 100 shares:** - Number of shares = Investment / Market Value - Number of shares = \( \frac{0.8 \times TS}{120} \) 2. **Number of 20% Rs. 50 shares:** - Number of shares = Investment / Market Value - Number of shares = \( \frac{0.2 \times TS}{40} \) ### Step 5: Calculate Income from Each Share Type 1. **Income from 10% Rs. 100 shares:** - Income = Number of shares × Dividend per share - Income = \( \left(\frac{0.8 \times TS}{120}\right) \times 10 \) 2. **Income from 20% Rs. 50 shares:** - Income = Number of shares × Dividend per share - Income = \( \left(\frac{0.2 \times TS}{40}\right) \times 10 \) ### Step 6: Set Up the Total Income Equation According to the problem, the total income from both types of shares is Rs. 5600. - Total Income = Income from 10% shares + Income from 20% shares - \( \left(\frac{0.8 \times TS}{120}\right) \times 10 + \left(\frac{0.2 \times TS}{40}\right) \times 10 = 5600 \) ### Step 7: Simplify the Equation - \( \frac{8 \times TS}{120} + \frac{2 \times TS}{40} = 5600 \) - Convert to a common denominator (120): - \( \frac{8 \times TS}{120} + \frac{6 \times TS}{120} = 5600 \) - \( \frac{14 \times TS}{120} = 5600 \) ### Step 8: Solve for Total Savings (TS) - \( 14 \times TS = 5600 \times 120 \) - \( TS = \frac{5600 \times 120}{14} \) - \( TS = 48000 \) ### Step 9: Calculate Investment in Shares on the Whole - Total Investment = \( TS = 48000 \) ### Step 10: Calculate the Number of Shares of First Kind - Number of 10% Rs. 100 shares = \( \frac{0.8 \times 48000}{120} \) - Number of shares = \( \frac{38400}{120} = 320 \) ### Step 11: Calculate Percentage Return on the Shares Bought - Total Income = Rs. 5600 - Percentage Return = \( \frac{Total Income}{Total Investment} \times 100 \) - Percentage Return = \( \frac{5600}{48000} \times 100 = \frac{35}{3} \approx 11.67\% \) ### Final Answers: (i) Total Investment in shares = Rs. 48000 (ii) Number of shares of first kind (10% Rs. 100 shares) = 320 (iii) Percentage return on the shares bought = \( \approx 11.67\% \)
