Correct Answer: Rs.2,400
Solution :
Time period for beginning of each quarter = (Time left after 1st drawing + Time left after last drawing)/2 = (12 + 3)/2 = 7.5 Months
Interest on drawings = Total drawings X Interest on drawings X Time period = Rs.(12,000 X 4) X 8% X 7.5/12 = Rs.2,400
Hence, the correct option is 2.
