Find the amount and the compound interest on Rs. 8000 for 1 ½ years at 10% per annum, compounded half-yearly.

Answer»

Given details are,

Principal (p) = Rs 8000

Rate (r) = 10 % per annum = 10/2% = 5% (half yearly)

Time (t) = 1 ½ years = (3/2) × 2 = 3 half years

By using the formula,

A = P (1 + R/100) n

= 8000 (1 + 5/100)3

= 8000 (105/100)3

= Rs 9261

∴ CI = Rs 9261 – 8000 = Rs 1261
