At what rate of compound interest per annum will a sum of Rs 10000 become Rs 12321 in 2 years?
Let rate of interest = $$r \%$$
Sum under compound interest = Rs. 10,000 and time period = 2 years
=>Â Amount = $$P (1 + \frac{R}{100})^T = 12,321$$
=> $$10,000 (1 + \frac{r}{100})^2 = 12,321$$
=> $$(1 + \frac{r}{100})^2 = \frac{12321}{10000} = 1.2321$$
=> $$1 + \frac{r}{100} = \sqrt{1.2321} = 1.11$$
=> $$\frac{r}{100} = 1.11 - 1 = 0.11$$
=> $$r = 0.11 \times 100 = 11\%$$
