Loan is ₹180000 at 6 percent interest. ₹60000 principal is paid after 4 months. What is total interest for the year?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹8400

The direct answer is A: total interest for the year is ₹8,400. For the first four months, the full loan of ₹180,000 remains unpaid. Interest = ₹180,000 × 6/100 × 4/12 = ₹3,600. After four months, ₹60,000 principal is paid, so the balance becomes ₹120,000. It remains outstanding for the next eight months. Interest for those eight months = ₹120,000 × 6/100 × 8/12 = ₹4,800. Total interest = ₹3,600 + ₹4,800 = ₹8,400. Option A is correct. Option B, ₹10,800, applies 6 percent to the full original loan for the entire year and ignores the repayment. Option C, ₹7,200, misses part of the interest. Option D, ₹6,000, uses an incorrect time or principal. Exam cue: divide the year into periods whenever principal is repaid during the year.
