उत्तर

For shares of 'Asian Chemicals': 

Let x be the no. of shares sold by Pay al. 

Nominal value of each share =Rs 125 

Face value of x shares = Rs 125x 

Market value of each share = Rs 150 

Market value of x shares = Rs 150x = proceeds from selling 

Dividend = 12 % of Rs 125x = `12/100` x Rs 125 x = Rs 15 x .......... (i)  

For shares of 'Saras Chemicals': 

Market value of each share = Rs 40 

Number of shares bought= proceeds from selling 'Asian Chemicals' /market value of 'Saras Chemicals' 

=`(150 x)/40 = (15 x)/4`

Nominal value of each share =Rs 50

Face value of `(15 x)/4` shares = Rs `50 xx (15 x)/4` = Rs 187.5 x

Dividend = 10 % of Rs 187.5 x = Rs `(10 xx 187.5 x)/100` = Rs 18.75 x ......(ii)

Increase in annual income =Rs 825 =subtraction of (i) from (ii) 

Rs (18.75x-15x) =Rs 825 

⇒  3.75x =Rs 825 

⇒  x = 220

Therefore, Payal sold 220 shares
