Question 74

If ₹ 12000 is invested for two years at compound interest (compounded annually) at the rate of 20% per annum,then what is the interest?

Solution

principal p = 12000

rate of interest R= 20%

1st year interest = 20% of 12000 = 2400

2nd year interest = 20 % of 12000 + 20% of 2400 (20% on interest earned in 1st year)

2400+480 = 2880

total interest after 2 years = 2400+2880 = 5280
