Q:

Find the compound interest on Rs. 10,000 in 2 years at 4% per annum, the interest being compounded half-yearly.

A) 524.32	B) 624.32
C) 724.32	D) 824.32

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 824.32

Explanation:

Principal = Rs. 10000; Rate = 2% per half-year; Time = 2 years = 4 half-years.
Amount == Rs. 10824.32.

$R s . [10000 * {(1 + \frac{2}{100})}^{4}] = R s . [10000 * \frac{51}{50} * \frac{51}{50} * \frac{51}{50} * \frac{51}{50}]$

$\therefore$ C.I. = Rs. (10824.32 - 10000) = Rs. 824.32.
