उत्तर
Girish’s interest (6% p.a):
April 1, 2023, to August 1, 2023 = 4 Months
Interest on capital = `5,60,000 xx 6/100 xx 4/12`
= 11,200
August 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024 = 8 Months
Interest on capital = `5,00,000 xx 6/100 xx 8/12`
= 20,000
Total interest = 11,200 + 20,000
= 31,200
Satish’s interest (6% p.a):
April 1, 2023, to August 1, 2023 = 4 Months
Interest on capital = `4,75,000 xx 6/100 xx 4/12`
= 9,500
August 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024 = 8 Months
Interest on capital = `5,00,000 xx 6/100 xx 8/12`
= 20,000
Total interest = 9,500 + 20,000
= 29,500
