On what sum of money will the difference between simple interest and compound interest for 2 years at 5% per annum be equal to 63?
Let the principal amount be P
Given,
Rate of interest (R) = 5%
Time = 2 years
Difference between simple interest and compound interest for 2 years = 63
we know that difference between simple interest and compund interest for 2 years =Â $$P\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^2$$
$$=$$> Â $$P\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^2=63$$
$$=$$> Â $$P\left(\frac{5}{100}\right)^2=63$$
$$=$$> Â $$P\left(\frac{1}{20}\right)^2=63$$
$$=$$> Â $$P=63\times20\times20$$
$$=$$> Â $$P=25200$$
$$\therefore\ $$Principal amount =Â Rs. 25,200
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
