Instructional Guide: Unit 04 Financial Arithmetic (مالیاتی ریاضیات)

Target Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs)
  • Distinguish between Direct Proportion (straight line graph through origin) and Inverse Proportion (smooth hyperbola curve).
  • Solve multi-variable real-world problems using Compound Proportion.
  • Calculate profit and loss distribution in Compound Business Partnerships involving variable capital and unequal time durations ($Capital \times Time$).
  • Compute legal estate shares under Islamic Law of Inheritance (deducting debts, funeral expenses, and bequests $\le 1/3$).
  • Convert Pakistani Rupees to international currencies (USD, SAR, EUR, GBP, CNY, JPY) using buying/selling exchange rates.
  • Calculate simple profit/markup using $I = \frac{PRT}{100}$ and determine total payable amounts and monthly installments.
  • Analyze multi-step Successive Transactions involving Cost Price ($CP$), Sale Price ($SP$), Marked Price ($MP$), Profit/Loss %, and Discount %.
  • Compute Life and Vehicle Insurance premiums, policy fees, family income contracts, maturity bonuses, and asset depreciation (10% per annum).
Common Student Misconceptions & Traps
  • Proportion Arrow Alignment: In compound proportion, placing arrows incorrectly. Always compare each independent variable directly with the unknown target variable ($x$).
  • Partnership Time Weighting: Forgetting to multiply investment by time when partners join or withdraw mid-year ($Investment \times Months$).
  • Inheritance Deduction Order: Distributing estate before clearing debts or funeral expenses. The Quranic order is: Funeral Costs $\to$ Debts $\to$ Bequest (max 1/3) $\to$ Fixed Heirs $\to$ Sons/Daughters in 2:1 ratio.
  • Profit % vs Discount % Base: Profit and Loss % are always calculated on Cost Price ($CP$), whereas Discount % is always calculated on Marked Price ($MP$).
  • Vehicle Depreciation Cycle: In vehicle insurance, the annual premium decreases each year because the insured car value depreciates by 10% annually.
3-Step Concept Mastery Strategy
  1. Step 1: Classify the Financial Operation: Determine if the problem is proportion, banking markup, commercial trade, inheritance, currency conversion, or insurance.
  2. Step 2: Establish the Conversion & Equation: Set up proportional fractional products ($\frac{x}{x_0} = \prod \text{factors}$), markup formula ($\frac{PRT}{100}$), or ratio sum partition.
  3. Step 3: Dimensional & Balance Check: Verify monetary units (PKR, SAR, USD), ensure ratios sum up to total remaining fund, and check net profit/loss balance.
Curriculum Alignment: This unit strictly follows the Single National Curriculum (SNC) / FBISE Grade 8 Mathematics textbook published by the National Book Foundation (NBF). All formulas, exchange tables, Islamic inheritance rules, and 100% solved exercises are fully elaborated with step-by-step scoring breakdown.

Chapter 4: Financial Arithmetic (مالیاتی ریاضیات)

Financial Arithmetic is the mathematics of money, commerce, and real-life resource distribution. From managing commercial trade, calculating banking markups, and exchanging global currencies, to executing equitable business partnerships, fulfilling Islamic inheritance laws, and securing assets through insurance, this guide equips you with lifelong practical financial literacy!

💡 Kid-Friendly Tips for Success

  • Direct = Same Way: If more buys more, both arrows point up ($\uparrow \uparrow$). Cross-multiply straight: $\frac{x}{a} = \frac{b}{c}$.
  • Inverse = Flip it: If more workers take fewer days, flip the second ratio: $\frac{x}{a} = \frac{c}{b}$.
  • Partnership Magic: Effective Capital = $\text{Money} \times \text{Months}$. If duration is same, time cancels out!
  • Inheritance 2-to-1 Rule: Every brother receives double of what a sister receives ($2 : 1$).
  • Marked vs Sale: $\text{Sale Price} = \text{Marked Price} - \text{Discount}$. Never pay sticker price if there is a sale!

🌍 Real-World Connections

  • Hajj & Travel Banking: Exchanging Pakistani Rupees for Saudi Riyals (SAR) or US Dollars (USD) before international travel.
  • Car Financing & Installments: Understanding how commercial banks compute markup on auto loans over 3 to 5 years.
  • Family Estate Settlement: Applying Islamic Shariah laws to justly divide properties, shops, and land among family heirs.
  • Auto & Health Protection: How vehicle insurance covers accidental damage and life insurance provides financial security to families.

Section-by-Section Theoretical Mastery

1. Direct, Inverse, and Compound Proportions

A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equivalent: $a : b :: c : d$ or $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}$.

Direct Proportion: $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \iff ad = bc$. Both quantities rise or fall together in the exact same ratio. Graph is a straight line through origin $(0,0)$.
Inverse Proportion: $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{d}{c} \iff ac = bd$. One quantity rises while the other decreases proportionally. Graph is a smooth hyperbolic curve.
Compound Proportion: Combines two or more proportions: $\frac{x}{x_0} = \left(\text{factor}_1\right) \times \left(\text{factor}_2\right)$.

2. Compound Business Partnerships

When partners invest different sums of capital for different lengths of time, profit or loss is divided in proportion to the effective monthly capital: $$\text{Effective Capital} = \text{Investment Amount} \times \text{Time Duration (Months)}$$ $$\text{Ratio of Shares} = (C_1 \times T_1) : (C_2 \times T_2) : (C_3 \times T_3)$$ $$\text{Individual Share} = \frac{\text{Individual Ratio Term}}{\text{Sum of Ratio Terms}} \times \text{Total Profit or Loss}$$

3. Islamic Law of Inheritance (قانونِ وراثت)

The estate of a deceased person is distributed strictly in the following mandatory legal sequence:

  1. Funeral & Burial Costs: Deducted first from gross property.
  2. Debts (Qarz): All outstanding debts must be settled in full.
  3. Testament / Wasiyyat: Fulfill any charitable bequest (cannot exceed $\frac{1}{3}$ of remaining property).
  4. Fixed Quranic Shares:
    • Parents (Father and Mother): $\frac{1}{6}$ each when deceased leaves children.
    • Widow (Wife): $\frac{1}{8}$ of net estate when children exist; $\frac{1}{4}$ if no children.
    • Husband: $\frac{1}{4}$ when deceased wife leaves children; $\frac{1}{2}$ if no children.
    • Single Daughter (no sons): $\frac{1}{2}$; Multiple Daughters (no sons): $\frac{2}{3}$ shared equally.
  5. Residue Distribution: The remaining estate is distributed among sons and daughters in the ratio $2 : 1$ (each son receives twice the share of a daughter).

4. Foreign Currency Conversions

Currencies are exchanged using prevailing bank exchange rates. To convert foreign currency into PKR, multiply by the conversion rate; to convert PKR into foreign currency, divide by the conversion rate: $$\text{Amount in PKR} = \text{Foreign Currency Amount} \times \text{Exchange Rate (PKR per unit)}$$ $$\text{Foreign Currency Amount} = \frac{\text{Amount in PKR}}{\text{Exchange Rate (PKR per unit)}}$$

5. Banking Profit / Markup Formula

For a principal amount $P$ deposited or borrowed at rate $R\%$ per annum for $T$ years: $$\text{Profit / Markup } (I) = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}$$ $$\text{Total Payable / Received Amount } (A) = P + I$$ $$\text{Monthly Installment} = \frac{\text{Total Amount } (A)}{\text{Total Number of Months } (12 \times T)}$$

6. Successive Commercial Transactions & Discount

Profit & Loss:
$\text{Profit} = SP - CP$
$\text{Loss} = CP - SP$
$\text{Profit } \% = \frac{\text{Profit}}{CP} \times 100$
$\text{Loss } \% = \frac{\text{Loss}}{CP} \times 100$
Discount:
$\text{Discount} = MP - SP$
$\text{Discount } \% = \frac{\text{Discount}}{MP} \times 100$
$SP = MP \times \left(1 - \frac{\text{Discount } \%}{100}\right)$
$MP = \frac{SP}{1 - \frac{\text{Discount } \%}{100}}$

7. Insurance (Life & Vehicle Insurance)

Life Insurance: $\text{Annual Premium} = \text{First (Basic) Premium} + \text{Policy Fee} + \text{Family Income Contract Fee}$. At maturity, insurer receives $\text{Policy Amount} + \text{Accumulated Bonuses}$.
Vehicle Insurance: Annual premium is a percentage of the vehicle's depreciated value. Standard annual depreciation is $10\%$ of previous year's value.

Exercise 4.1 • Direct and Inverse Proportion

Q1. A book seller offers a discount of Rs. 45 on purchasing 5 books. Find the discount on 18 books.
Step 1: Set up the proportion table.
Let the discount on 18 books be $\text{Rs. } x$. More books mean more discount (Direct Proportion):
$$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Books} & \textbf{Discount (Rs.)} \\ \hline 5 \uparrow & 45 \uparrow \\ 18 & x \\ \hline \end{array}$$ Step 2: Solve the direct proportion equation:
$$\frac{x}{45} = \frac{18}{5}$$ $$x = \frac{18}{5} \times 45 = 18 \times 9 = 162$$ Final Answer: The discount on 18 books is Rs. 162.
Q2. Cost price of banana is Rs. 50 per dozen. Find the cost price of 2.5 dozen bananas.
Step 1: Identify relationship.
Cost of 1 dozen bananas $= \text{Rs. } 50$. More dozens mean more cost (Direct Proportion).
Step 2: Calculate total cost:
$$\text{Cost} = 2.5 \times 50 = \text{Rs. } 125$$ Final Answer: The cost price of 2.5 dozen bananas is Rs. 125.
Q3. Cost of 5 kg apples is Rs. 400. Hassan buys 12 kg apples and gives a note of Rs. 1000 to the shopkeeper. How much money will he get back from the shopkeeper?
Step 1: Find cost of 12 kg apples via direct proportion:
$$\text{Cost of 1 kg} = \frac{400}{5} = \text{Rs. } 80$$ $$\text{Cost of 12 kg} = 12 \times 80 = \text{Rs. } 960$$ Step 2: Calculate change returned:
$$\text{Money given} = \text{Rs. } 1000$$ $$\text{Money returned} = 1000 - 960 = \text{Rs. } 40$$ Final Answer: Hassan will get back Rs. 40.
Q4. If 12 men can do a job in 20 days. How long will 10 men take to complete the same job?
Step 1: Set up inverse proportion table.
Fewer men will take more days (Inverse Proportion):
$$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Men} & \textbf{Days} \\ \hline 12 \downarrow & 20 \uparrow \\ 10 & x \\ \hline \end{array}$$ Step 2: Solve the inverse proportion equation:
$$\frac{x}{20} = \frac{12}{10}$$ $$x = \frac{12}{10} \times 20 = 12 \times 2 = 24$$ Final Answer: 10 men will take 24 days.
Q5. If 20 people can do a work in 15 days. How many more people are required to complete the work in 10 days?
Step 1: Find total people required for 10 days (Inverse Proportion):
$$\frac{x}{20} = \frac{15}{10}$$ $$x = \frac{15}{10} \times 20 = 30\text{ people}$$ Step 2: Compute additional people required:
$$\text{More people required} = 30 - 20 = 10$$ Final Answer: 10 more people are required.
Q6. If one dozen eggs cost Rs. 96. Find the cost of 8 eggs.
Step 1: Set up direct proportion (1 dozen = 12 eggs):
$$\frac{x}{96} = \frac{8}{12}$$ $$x = \frac{8}{12} \times 96 = 8 \times 8 = 64$$ Final Answer: The cost of 8 eggs is Rs. 64.
Q7. 18 people completed a work in 10 days. How many people are required to complete one third of the same work?
Step 1: Understand relationship.
In the same time (10 days), less work requires fewer people (Direct Proportion with work):
$$\text{People required} = 18 \times \frac{1}{3} = 6$$ Final Answer: 6 people are required.
Q8. 4000 bricks cost Rs. 25000. What is the cost of 9000 bricks?
Step 1: Set up direct proportion:
$$\frac{x}{25000} = \frac{9000}{4000}$$ $$x = \frac{9}{4} \times 25000 = 9 \times 6250 = \text{Rs. } 56250$$ Final Answer: The cost of 9000 bricks is Rs. 56,250.

Exercise 4.2 • Compound Proportion, Business Partnership & Inheritance

Q1. A truck driver charges Rs. 2000 for 10 km with a load of 800 kg. What will he charge if truck covers a distance of 8 km with a load of 600 kg?
Step 1: Form compound proportion table.
Let the required charge be $\text{Rs. } x$. Charge is directly proportional to both distance and weight:
$$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Charge (Rs.)} & \textbf{Distance (km)} & \textbf{Weight (kg)} \\ \hline 2000 \uparrow & 10 \uparrow & 800 \uparrow \\ x & 8 & 600 \\ \hline \end{array}$$ Step 2: Solve compound equation:
$$\frac{x}{2000} = \frac{8}{10} \times \frac{600}{800}$$ $$x = 2000 \times \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{4} = 2000 \times \frac{3}{5} = 1200$$ Final Answer: The driver will charge Rs. 1,200.
Q2. 10 men can repair 5 machines in 2 days. How many machines are repaired by 8 men in 3 days?
Step 1: Set up compound proportion table.
Machines repaired is directly proportional to both men and days:
$$\frac{x}{5} = \frac{8}{10} \times \frac{3}{2}$$ $$x = 5 \times \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{2} = 6$$ Final Answer: 6 machines are repaired.
Q3. 12 men can do a work in 8 days. How many men can do three times of that work in 16 days?
Step 1: Form compound proportion table.
Men is inversely proportional to days and directly proportional to work:
$$\frac{x}{12} = \frac{8}{16} \times \frac{3}{1}$$ $$x = 12 \times \frac{1}{2} \times 3 = 18$$ Final Answer: 18 men are required.
Q4. 100 hens eat one fourth quantity of feed in 21 days. In how many days 84 hens will eat remaining feed?
Step 1: Identify quantities.
Remaining feed $= 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$. Days is inversely proportional to hens and directly proportional to feed:
$$\frac{x}{21} = \frac{100}{84} \times \frac{3/4}{1/4} = \frac{100}{84} \times 3 = \frac{300}{84} = \frac{25}{7}$$ $$x = 21 \times \frac{25}{7} = 3 \times 25 = 75$$ Final Answer: 84 hens will eat the remaining feed in 75 days.
Q5. In a factory 49 workers make 1050 articles in 10 hours. One day 4 workers were absent. In how many hours can remaining workers make 1350 articles?
Step 1: Remaining workers $= 49 - 4 = 45$.
Hours is inversely proportional to workers and directly proportional to articles:
$$\frac{x}{10} = \frac{49}{45} \times \frac{1350}{1050}$$ $$\frac{1350}{1050} = \frac{135}{105} = \frac{9}{7}$$ $$x = 10 \times \frac{49}{45} \times \frac{9}{7} = 10 \times \left(\frac{49}{7}\right) \times \left(\frac{9}{45}\right) = 10 \times 7 \times \frac{1}{5} = 14$$ Final Answer: The remaining workers will take 14 hours.
Q6. For 28 scouts 168 kg food is sufficient for 6 days. For how many days 144 kg food is sufficient if 8 more scouts join them?
Step 1: Total scouts $= 28 + 8 = 36$.
Days is inversely proportional to scouts and directly proportional to food:
$$\frac{x}{6} = \frac{28}{36} \times \frac{144}{168}$$ $$\frac{28}{36} = \frac{7}{9}, \quad \frac{144}{168} = \frac{6}{7}$$ $$x = 6 \times \frac{7}{9} \times \frac{6}{7} = 6 \times \frac{6}{9} = 4$$ Final Answer: The food will be sufficient for 4 days.
Q7. Hassan, Akbar and Asghar started a business by investing Rs. 10000, Rs. 12000 and Rs. 15000 respectively. Asghar took his money back after 10 months. Find the share of each in the profit of Rs. 27600 after one year.
Step 1: Compute weighted investments (Duration in months):
- Hassan: $10000 \times 12 = 120000$
- Akbar: $12000 \times 12 = 144000$
- Asghar: $15000 \times 10 = 150000$
Step 2: Simplify investment ratio:
$$120 : 144 : 150 = 20 : 24 : 25 \quad (\div 6)$$ $$\text{Sum of ratio terms} = 20 + 24 + 25 = 69$$ Step 3: Calculate individual shares from total profit Rs. 27600:
- Hassan's share $= \frac{20}{69} \times 27600 = 20 \times 400 = \text{Rs. } 8000$
- Akbar's share $= \frac{24}{69} \times 27600 = 24 \times 400 = \text{Rs. } 9600$
- Asghar's share $= \frac{25}{69} \times 27600 = 25 \times 400 = \text{Rs. } 10000$
Final Answer: Hassan: Rs. 8,000, Akbar: Rs. 9,600, Asghar: Rs. 10,000.
Q8. Alia, Maha and Sundas shared Rs. 12000, Rs. 15000 and Rs. 18000 respectively for a business. After 5 months Maha took her money back. At the end of 10 months they suffered a loss of Rs. 18750. Find the share of each in loss.
Step 1: Compute weighted investments:
- Alia (10 months): $12000 \times 10 = 120000$
- Maha (5 months): $15000 \times 5 = 75000$
- Sundas (10 months): $18000 \times 10 = 180000$
Step 2: Simplify ratio:
$$120 : 75 : 180 = 8 : 5 : 12 \quad (\div 15)$$ $$\text{Sum of ratio terms} = 8 + 5 + 12 = 25$$ Step 3: Calculate individual loss shares:
- Alia's loss $= \frac{8}{25} \times 18750 = 8 \times 750 = \text{Rs. } 6000$
- Maha's loss $= \frac{5}{25} \times 18750 = 5 \times 750 = \text{Rs. } 3750$
- Sundas's loss $= \frac{12}{25} \times 18750 = 12 \times 750 = \text{Rs. } 9000$
Final Answer: Alia: Rs. 6,000, Maha: Rs. 3,750, Sundas: Rs. 9,000.
Q9. X started the business with the investment Rs. 35000. After three months Y joined him with the investment of Rs. 30000. Then after two months Z also joined them with the investment of Rs. 40000. They closed their business 5 months after joining Z. Find share of each in the profit of Rs. 152000.
Step 1: Calculate duration of each partner's investment:
- Total business duration $= 3 + 2 + 5 = 10\text{ months}$
- X was in business for $10\text{ months}$
- Y was in business for $10 - 3 = 7\text{ months}$
- Z was in business for $5\text{ months}$
Step 2: Weighted investments:
- X: $35000 \times 10 = 350000$
- Y: $30000 \times 7 = 210000$
- Z: $40000 \times 5 = 200000$
$$\text{Ratio} = 35 : 21 : 20, \quad \text{Sum of ratio terms} = 35 + 21 + 20 = 76$$ Step 3: Profit shares ($\text{Total} = \text{Rs. } 152000$):
$$\text{Value of 1 ratio unit} = \frac{152000}{76} = \text{Rs. } 2000$$ - X's share $= 35 \times 2000 = \text{Rs. } 70000$
- Y's share $= 21 \times 2000 = \text{Rs. } 42000$

- 1st year premium $= 500000 \times 0.045 = \text{Rs. } 22500$
- 2nd year premium $= 450000 \times 0.045 = \text{Rs. } 20250$
- 3rd year premium $= 405000 \times 0.045 = \text{Rs. } 18225$
$$\text{Total Premium} = 22500 + 20250 + 18225 = \textbf{Rs. 60,975}$$
Q5. 33 men do two third work in 12 days working 10 hours daily. How many hours daily required for remaining work in 6 days if 3 men are not available?
$$\text{Remaining men} = 33 - 3 = 30, \quad \text{Remaining work} = 1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3}$$ $$\frac{x}{10} = \frac{33}{30} \times \frac{12}{6} \times \frac{1/3}{2/3} = 1.1 \times 2 \times 0.5 = 1.1$$ $$x = 10 \times 1.1 = \textbf{11 hours daily}$$
Q6. Contractor to build bridge in 96 days with 40 workers. After 60 days only $\frac{2}{5}$ work completed. How many more workers required to finish on time?
$$\text{Remaining days} = 96 - 60 = 36, \quad \text{Remaining work} = \frac{3}{5}$$ $$\frac{x}{40} = \frac{60}{36} \times \frac{3/5}{2/5} = \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{5}{2}$$ $$x = 40 \times \frac{5}{2} = 100\text{ workers}$$ $$\text{More workers required} = 100 - 40 = \textbf{60 workers}$$
Q7. Rehan (Rs. 50000 for 12m), Saeed (Rs. 40000 for 6m), Asim (Rs. 70000 for 6m). Profit = Rs. 63000. Find share of each.
$$\text{Ratio} = (50000 \times 12) : (40000 \times 6) : (70000 \times 6) = 60 : 24 : 42 = 10 : 4 : 7$$ $$\text{Sum of ratios} = 10 + 4 + 7 = 21 \implies \text{Unit value} = \frac{63000}{21} = \text{Rs. } 3000$$ - Rehan's share $= 10 \times 3000 = \textbf{Rs. 30,000}$
- Saeed's share $= 4 \times 3000 = \textbf{Rs. 12,000}$
- Asim's share $= 7 \times 3000 = \textbf{Rs. 21,000}$
Q8. Bank balance = Rs. 430000, 6 tolas gold = Rs. 600000. 2 tolas gold given to poor family. Divide property between son and husband.
$$\text{Remaining 4 tolas gold} = 4 \times 100000 = \text{Rs. } 400000$$ $$\text{Total Distributable Estate} = 430000 + 400000 = \text{Rs. } 830000$$ - Husband's share $(\frac{1}{4}) = \frac{1}{4} \times 830000 = \textbf{Rs. 207,500}$
- Son's share (remaining) $= 830000 - 207500 = \textbf{Rs. 622,500}$

- Flour $= \frac{1235}{0.95} = \textbf{Rs. 1,300}$
(ii) Discounts:
- Rice $= 1600 - 1520 = \textbf{Rs. 80}$
- Sugar $= 1000 - 960 = \textbf{Rs. 40}$
- Flour $= 1300 - 1235 = \textbf{Rs. 65}$
(iii) Total Discount:
$$\text{Total Discount} = 80 + 40 + 65 = \textbf{Rs. 185}$$
