Payment of ₹42800 includes interest of ₹2800. What amount reduces principal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹40000

The governing concept is the separation of a combined payment into interest and principal components. When the total payment is ₹42,800 and it includes ₹2,800 of interest, the amount available to repay and reduce the loan principal is found by subtraction: ₹42,800 − ₹2,800 = ₹40,000. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is the entire cash payment, but it incorrectly treats the interest portion as principal repayment. Option C is only the interest amount and therefore does not reduce the principal. Option D adds interest to the total payment, which reverses the required calculation and produces an impossible higher principal repayment. In accounting, the interest is recorded as an expense or interest liability, while only ₹40,000 is credited to the bank and debited against the loan principal.
