Solution
| Month | Balance (in Rs) |
| Apr 2007 | 7350 |
| May | 11900 |
| Jun | 11900 |
| Jul | 13400 |
| Aug | 13400 |
| Sep | 14400 |
| Oct | 14400 |
| Nov | 15200 |
| Dec | 15200 |
| Jan 2008 | 13200 |
| Feb | 13200 |
| Mar | 14150 |
| Total | 157800 |
∴ Principal for 1 month is Rs. 157700, and Rate = 5% p.a.
Interest paid = `="Principal x Rate x Time"/100 = (157700xx5xx(1/12))/100 = (263 xx 55)/2`
= `1315/2` = 657.08 = Rs 657 (in rupees)
The interest paid on `1^"st"` April, 2008 is Rs. 657.
