Answer : 3. "Rs. 9000"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Rs. 9000 Explanation: Let Rs. K invested in each scheme Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44% Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25% Now, (P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75 => 11.75 P = 52875 => P = Rs. 4500   Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.

Answer: A) Deducted from the balance sheet Explanation: If an outstanding check of the previous month clears the bank (is paid by the bank) in the current month, you simply remove that check from the list of outstanding checks.
