A person has an initial investment of ₹50,000 in an investment plan. After 2 years, it has grown to ₹60,000, then his rate of return is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Rate of return =Final value−Initial valueInitial value×100= \dfrac{\text{Final value} - \text{Initial value}}{\text{Initial value}}\times 100.

=60000−5000050000×100=20%= \dfrac{60000-50000}{50000}\times 100 = 20\%.

Note: The question does not specify whether the return is for the whole holding period or per annum; we have applied the standard rate-of-return formula, which gives the return over the period.
