उत्तर
Number of installments = n = 12
First installment = a = Rs. 3000
Depreciation in installment = d = –100
i Amount of installment paid in the 9th month
= t9
= a + 8d
= 3000 + 8 × (–100)
= 3000 – 800
= Rs. 2200
ii. Total amount paid in the installment scheme
= S12
= `12/2 [2 xx 3000 + 11 xx (-100)]`
= 6[6000 – 1100]
= 6 × 4900
= Rs. 29,400
