Hello Aspirants
Welcome to online RBI Question Section in Affairscloud.com. Here we are sharing sample question for Finance and Management Numerical Sample Problem For RBI Grade B Phase 2 Exam provided by OliveBoard.
1. There is a T-Bill which is issued at a discounted yield of 10%. The number of days to maturity is 91. What is the price?
(1) 90
(2) 97.5
(3) 91
(4) 98.5
(5) 99
Solution:
Note : T-Bills are sold at a discount, therefore, the gain without any coupons = (100 – Price)/Price
Annualized gain % or discounted yield = gain x 365 x 100 / days to maturity
Discounted yield = (100-Price¬) x 365 x 100/ (Price x Days to maturity)
10 = (100-Price) x 365 x 100/Price x 91
– 910P = 36500(100 – P)
– 37410P = 3650000
– P = 97.57
