The simple interest accrued on a certain principal is Rs. 1200 in 3 years at the rate of 8% per annum. What would be the compound interest (compounding annually) accrued on twice of that principal at the rate of 10% per annum in 2 years ? |
Rs. 1,050 Rs. 1,150 Rs. 2,100 Rs. 1,100 |
Rs. 2,100 |
Principal(P)=? Time(T)= 3 years Rate = 8 % Simple Interest (S.I.) = 1200 If P=100 I=R×T I=8×3 I=24% ATQ 24%=1200 1%=50 100%=5000 Rs If principal is twice i.e. 5000×2= Rs 10000 R=10% T=2 years Compound Interest for 2 years = R+R+\(\frac{R×R}{100}\) = 10+10+\(\frac{10×10}{100}\) = 21% Interest = 21% of Principal = \(\frac{21}{100}\)×10000 =2100 Rs |
