Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 13,750

Given:

Anjali borrowed Rs. 25,000 at the rate of 10% per annum under compound interest.

Amount repaid after 1 year = Rs. 15,000

Formula used:

Amount after n years under compound interest = P[1 + (r/100)]T

Calculation:

Amount that she needs to pay at the end of one year = 25000 [1 + (10/100)]

⇒ Rs. 27500

She repaid Rs. 15,000 at the end of one year

⇒ Rs. (27500 – 15000) = Rs. 12,500 = Principal for second year

Amount that he needs to pay to clear = 12500 (1 + 10/100)

⇒ Rs. 13750

The required amount is Rs. 13,750
