The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to calculate the value of the flat and the land after 2 years, and then determine the profit percentage for the person who gains from the exchange. ### Step 1: Calculate the future value of the flat after 2 years. - **Initial value of the flat** = ₹2,00,000 - **Rate of increase** = 20% per annum - **Future Value (FV) formula**: \[ FV = P(1 + r)^n \] where \( P \) is the principal amount, \( r \) is the rate of interest, and \( n \) is the number of years. - Plugging in the values: \[ FV_{flat} = 2,00,000 \times (1 + 0.20)^2 \] \[ FV_{flat} = 2,00,000 \times (1.20)^2 \] \[ FV_{flat} = 2,00,000 \times 1.44 = 2,88,000 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the future value of the land after 2 years. - **Initial value of the land** = ₹2,20,000 - **Rate of increase** = 10% per annum - Plugging in the values: \[ FV_{land} = 2,20,000 \times (1 + 0.10)^2 \] \[ FV_{land} = 2,20,000 \times (1.10)^2 \] \[ FV_{land} = 2,20,000 \times 1.21 = 2,66,200 \] ### Step 3: Determine who made a profit after the exchange. - After 2 years, the flat is worth ₹2,88,000 and the land is worth ₹2,66,200. - The person who received the flat gained more value compared to the person who received the land. ### Step 4: Calculate the profit made by the person who received the flat. - **Profit** = Value of flat - Value of land \[ Profit = 2,88,000 - 2,66,200 = 21,800 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the profit percentage. - **Profit Percentage formula**: \[ \text{Profit Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{Cost Price}} \right) \times 100 \] - Here, the cost price is the initial value of the flat, which is ₹2,00,000. \[ \text{Profit Percentage} = \left( \frac{21,800}{2,00,000} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Profit Percentage} = 0.109 \times 100 = 10.9\% \] ### Final Answer: The profit percentage of the person who got profit is approximately **10.9%**. ---
