Q:

Find the compound interest on Rs. 6,500 for 4 years if the rate of interest is 10% p.a. for the first 2 years and 20% per annum for the next 2 years? 

A) Rs. 3845 B) Rs. 4826
C) Rs. 5142 D) Rs. 4415
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 4826

Explanation:

We know the formula for calculating

The compound interest C = P1 + r100n - 1 where P = amount, r = rate of interest, n = time

Here P = 5000, r1 = 10, r2 = 20

Then C = 65001 + 101002 x 1 + 201002 - 1= 6500 x 18562500= 65 x 185625

C = Rs. 4826.
