Q:

What will Rs.1500 amount to in three years if it is invested in 20% p.a. compound interest, interest being compounded annually?

A) Rs.2592 B) Rs.2492
C) Rs.2352 D) Rs.2352
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs.2592

Explanation:

The usual way to find the compound interest is given by the formula A = .p(1+r/100)^n

In this formula,

A is the amount at the end of the period of investment

P is the principal that is invested

r is the rate of interest in % p.a

And n is the number of years for which the principal has been invested.

In this case, it would turn out to be A =1500(1+20/100)^3

= 2592.
