The compound interest on a sum of ₹15800 for 2 years at 9% per annum, when the interest is compound 8 monthly,is (nearest to a rupee):

Solution

Given P=15800
R=9%
Time=2 years but for every 8 months it is calculated and so total months =24
so 24/8=3 i.e n=3

=$$P(1+\frac{2R/3}{100})^{3}-P$$

=15800($$(1+\frac{3}{50})^{3}$$)-1)

=15800*23877/125000

=3018.05
