Sudhanshu invested Rs. 15,000 at interest 10 p.c.p.a. for one year. If the interest is compounded every six months what amount wit Sudhanshu get at the end of the year ?
Interest is compounded half yearly
=> rate of interest = 10/2 = 5%
and time period = 1 * 2 = 2
=> Amount = $$15000 (1 + \frac{5}{100})^2$$
= $$15000 * \frac{21}{20} * \frac{21}{20}$$ = Rs. 16,537.50
