    C)  Rs. 10000                    

    D)  Rs. 1000

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    When difference between the compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum of money for 2 yr at r% rate is Rs. x, then the sum is given by \[x{{\left( \frac{100}{r} \right)}^{2}}\] Here, \[x=Rs.\,80,\] \[r=40%\] \[\therefore \] Required sum \[=80{{\left( \frac{100}{4} \right)}^{2}}\]                         \[=80\times 25\times 25\]                         \[=Rs.\,50000\]
