    A)  1 : 3                

    B)  2 : 1

    C)  2 : 3                

    D)  2 : 5

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]       
    Bhanu Madhuri
    \[{{T}_{1}}=3\,years\] \[{{T}_{2}}=10\,years\]
    \[{{R}_{1}}=12%\] \[{{R}_{2}}=24%\]
    Let P = 100
    \[\frac{{{A}_{1}}}{{{A}_{2}}}=\frac{100+{{T}_{1}}{{R}_{1}}}{100+{{T}_{2}}{{R}_{2}}}\] \[=\frac{100+3\times 12}{100+10\times 24}\] \[=\frac{136}{340}=\frac{2}{5}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,{{A}_{1}}:{{A}_{2}}=2:5\]
