5. Salman buys 50 shares of face value Rs 100 available at Rs 132.
(i) what is his investment?
(ii) If the dividend is 7.5% p.a., what will be his annual income?
(iii) If he wants to increase his annual income by Rs 150, how many extra shares should he buy?
Solution:
Given face value = Rs 100
(i) Given that market value (M.V.)= Rs 132
And number of shares = 50
∴  investment = number of shares × market value
= 50 × 132

Hence, his investment is Rs.6600
(ii) We have income per share = 7.5% of face value
= (75/ 10 × 100) × 100
= Rs.7.5
∴ annual income = 7.5 × 50
= Rs 375
Hence, his annual income is Rs.375
(iii) Therefore new annual income = 375 + 150 = Rs 525
Number of shares = 525/7.5 = 70
∴ number of extra share to be increased = 70 – 50
= 20
Hence, he buy 20 extra shares.

∴ total dividend = 180000 × 15/100
= Rs.2700
∴ market value of each share = 100 + 40 = Rs.140
Now the total investment = 140 × 1800
= Rs.252000
∴ percentage on his return
= (27000 × 100)/ 252000
= 10.7%

Solution:
We have given that, 
A man invested on shares = Rs 45000
Face value of each share = Rs 125
Therefore total number of shares =45000/125
= 360 shares
Income from sold shares = Rs 8400
Therefore number of shares sold = income from shares/ number of shares sold
=8400/140
= 60
(i) Number of shares he still holds = 300
Hence, 300 shares he still hold.
(ii) Market value of 300 shares = 300 × 140
= Rs 42000
Face value of 300 shares = 300 × 125
= Rs 37500
Difference = Market value – face value
= 42000 – 37500
= Rs 4500
Hence, Rs.4500 dividend due to him on these shares.

∴ Market value = Rs.100 + Rs.60 
= Rs.160
Rate of dividend = 8% p.a.
(i) Annual income = (8× 8000)/160
= Rs 400
Hence, his annual income is Rs.400
(ii) Rate of interest on his money = (400 × 100)/ 8000
= 5%
Hence, 5% he get on his money.

= Rs.12.50
Rate of dividend = 8%
Therefore, face value of 400 shares = 10 × 400
= Rs 4000
(i) Total investment = 12.50×400
= Rs 5000
Hence, his investment is Rs.5000
(ii) Total dividend = 4000× (8/100)
= Rs 320

22. Two companies have shares of 7% at Rs. 116 and 9% at Rs. 145 respectively. In which of the shares would the investment be more profitable ?
Solution:
Let the investment in each case = Rs.116× 145
For 1st company, 
Nominal value =Rs.100
Given, Rate of interest =7%
Given, Market value =Rs.116
Dividend in first case,
= (116× 145× 7)/ 116
= Rs 1015
For 2nd company, 
We have given that,
Market value =Rs.145
Now, Dividend in second case
= (116× 145× 9)/ 145
= Rs 1044
∴ To investment in Rs 145 shares is more profitable.
 
23. Which is better investment: 6% Rs.100 shares at Rs.120 or 8% Rs. 10 shares at Rs.15.
Solution:
Let the investment in each case = Rs.120 
In the fist case,
We have given that, 
Income on Rs.120 =6% of Rs.100= Rs.6
And, 
In second case, 
∴ Dividend on Rs. 10
= (8× 10)/ 100
= 0.8
Now,  Income on Rs 15 = 0.8
Then dividend on Rs 120 = (0.8× 120)/ 15
= Rs 6.4
Clearly, 16 > 15
From the above it is clear that, 8% at Rs 10shares at 15 is more profitable.
∴ The investment in the second case is better than the investment in the first case & 
 
24. A man invests Rs -10080 in 6% hundred- rupee shares at Rs.112. Find his annual income. When the shares fall to Rs.96 he sells out the shares and invests the proceeds in 10% ten-rupee shares at Rs.8. Find the change in his annual income.
Solution:
We have given that, 
Investment = Rs.10080 
Face value of each share = Rs.100 
Market value of each share = Rs.112 
Rate of dividend = 6% 
∴ Total income for the year
= (10080×6)/ 112
= Rs 540
Number of shares =10080/112= 90
∴  Selling price of 90 shares at the rate of Rs 96 each = 90× 96
= Rs 8640
Rate of dividend in new shares = 10%
Face value of each share = Rs 10
Market value of each share = Rs 8
Number of shares = 8640/8 = 1080
Now, Face value of 1080 shares = 1080×10
= Rs 10800
Dividend = (10800× 10)/100
= Rs 1080
∴  Difference in income = 1080 – 540
= Rs 540 more
Hence, the charge in his annual income is Rs.540.
 
25. A man bought 360 ten-rupee shares paying 12% per annum. He sold them when the price rose to Rs. 21 and invested the proceeds in five-rupee shares paying 4 ½ % per annum at Rs.3.5 per share. Find the annual change in his income.
Solution:
We have given that, 
No. of shares bought = 360
Face value of each share = Rs.10
Rate of dividend = 12%
∴  Total face value of 360 shares
= Rs.10 × 360
= Rs.3600
Yearly dividend = (3600×12)/100
= Rs 432
∴  On selling the share at Rs 21, the amount received = 21×360
= Rs 7560
Now, Face value of new shares = Rs 5
Market value = Rs 3.5
Rate of dividend = 4 ½ % = 9/2 %
∴  Number of shares purchased = 7560/3.5
= (7560 ×10)/35
= 2160
Face value of 2160 shares = 5× 2160
= Rs 10800
∴  Dividend = (10800×9)/ (100× 2)
= Rs 486
Change in income = 486 – 432
= Rs 54 gain.
Hence, Rs.54 is the annual change in income.
 
 
26. A person invests Rs. 4368 and buys certain hundred-rupee shares at 91. He sells out shares worth Rs. 2400 when they have risen to 95 and the remainder when they have fallen to 85. Find the gain or loss on the total transaction.
Solution:
We have given that, 
Investment = Rs.4368 
Market value of each share = Rs.91 
Face value of each share = Rs 100
∴, number of shares = 4368/91
= 48
And, the Face value of 24 shares = 24× 100
= Rs 2400
Now, the Sale price of shares worth Rs 2400 = (2400×95)/ 100
= Rs 2280
Face value of remaining shares = 24× 100
= Rs 2400
Remainder when they have fallen is Rs.85 [given]
Sale price of shares of remaining amount = (2400× 85)/ 100
= Rs 2040
∴ Total amount received = 2280 + 2040
= Rs 4320
Loss = 4368 – 4320
= Rs 48.
Hence, Rs.48 loss on his total transaction.
 
27. By purchasing Rs.50 gas shares for Rs.80 each, a man gets 4% profit on his investment. What rate percent is company paying? What is his dividend if he buys 200 shares ?
Solution:
We have given that, 
Market value (M.V.) of each share = Rs 80 
Face value (F.V.) of each share = Rs.50 
The man gets profit on investment = 4% 
Dividend on Rs 80 = (80× 4)/ 100
=32/10=3.20
∴ on Rs.50 the company pays Rs.3.20
Percent dividend = 3.20× (100/50)
=320/50= 6.4%
Hence, the rate percent paid by the company is 6.4%
We got income on 1 share is Rs.3.20
Number of shares = 200
∴ income on 200 shares =Rs.3.20×200
Rs.640
= Rs 640
Hence, his dividend if he buys 200 shares is Rs.640.
