Solution
Case (i)
If they withdraw money in the beginning of each month
Interest of drawings = Total drawings × Rate × `13/[2 xx 12]`
Menon’s = 24,000 × `10/100 xx 13/[2 xx 12]` = Rs 1,300
Thomas’s = 24,000 × `10/100 xx 13/[2 xx 12]` = Rs 1,300
Case (ii)
If they withdraw in the middle of every month
Interest on Drawings = Total drawings × `10/100 xx 6/12`
Menon’s = 24,000 × `10/100 xx 6/12` = Rs 1,200
Thomas’s = 24,000 × `10/100 xx 6/12` = Rs 1,200
Case (iii)
If they withdraw at the end of every month.
Interest on drawings = Total drawings × `"Rate"/100` x `11/[2 xx 12]`
Menon’s = 24,000 × `10/100` x `11/[2 xx 12]` = Rs 1,100
Thomas’s = 24,000 × `10/100` x `11/[2 xx 12]` = Rs 1,100
