S Chand ICSE Solutions Class 10 Maths Shares and Dividends Exercise 3B: Ques No 18
Abhishek sold a certain number of shares of Rs. 20 paying 8% dividend at Rs. 18 and invested the proceeds in Rs. 10 shares, paying 12% dividend at 50 % premium. If the change in his annual income is Rs. 120, find the number of shares sold by him?
S Chand ICSE Maths Solutions:
Let, Abhishek sell X shares.
Selling price of X shares = X x ₹ 18 = 18X
Face value of X shares = X x ₹ 20 = 20X
Dividend on X shares = 8% of 20X = 20X x 8 / 100 = 8X/5
Now, Rate per new share = ₹ 10 + 50% Premium = 10 + 5 = 15
No. of purchased new shares = Sale Proceeds / Rate per new share = 18X/15 = 6X/5
Nominal value of purchased new shares = 6X/5 x 10 = 12X
Dividend on purchased new shares = 12% of 12X = 12X x 12/100 = 36X/25
Change in annual income = ₹ 120
8X/5 − 36X/25 = 120 ⇒ X = 750
No. of shares sold by Abhishek = X = 750 shares

A person invested 20%, 30% and 25% of his saving in buying shares of three different companies A, B and C, which declared dividends of 10%, 12% and 15% respectively. If his total income on account of dividends be Rs. 2337.50, find his saving and the amount which he invested in buying shares of each company.
S Chand ICSE Maths Solutions:
Let, Total saving be X.
Dividend received = 10% of (20% of X) + 12% of (30% of X) + 15% of (25% of X)
⇒ 2,337.50 = X/50 + 9X/250 + 3X/80 ⇒ X = 25000
Total saving = X = ₹ 25,000
Investment in company ‘A’ = 20% of ₹ 25,000 = ₹ 5,000
Investment in company ‘B’ = 30% of ₹ 25,000 = ₹ 7,500
Investment in company ‘C’ = 25% of ₹ 25,000 = ₹ 6,250
