The simple interest on a sum of money at 10% per annum for 2 years is ₹ 8,100. Compounded annually, what would be the compound interest (in ₹) on the same sum for the same period at the same rate of interest? |
8,100 8,505 8,715 9,000 |
8,505 |
Simple Interest = Rs 8100 Rate = 10 % Time = 2 years Simple Interest for 2 years = R%+ R% = 10% + 10% = 20% Compound Interest for 2 years = R%+ R% + \(\frac{R% × R% }{100}\) = 10% + 10% + 1% = 21% A.T.Q , ⇒ 20% = Rs 8100 ⇒ 1% = Rs \(\frac{8100}{20}\) ⇒ 21% = Rs \(\frac{8100}{20}\) × 21 = Rs 8505 |
