Which is better investment: 11% stock at 143 or 9
% stock at 117?
% stock at 117?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Let investment in each case be Rs. (143 x 117).
| Income in 1st case = Rs. |  |
11 | x 143 x 117 |  |
= Rs. 1287. |
| 143 |
| Income in 2nd case = Rs. | |
39 | x 143 x 117 | |
= Rs. 1394.25 |
| 4 x 117 |
| Clearly, 9 | 3 | % stock at 117 is better. |
| 4 |

117 & 143 are multiplied only as an assumption.
