Answer»

For FIRST HALF year

Principal = RS. 7,200

Rate of interest = 15%

As rate is calculated semi annually

Interest = (7200 × 15 × 1)/200 = Rs. 540

For the second half year

Principal = 7200 + 7200 = Rs. 14400

Interest = (14440 × 15 × 1)/200 = Rs. 1080

Total interest = 540 + 1080 = Rs. 1620
