Solution:
Amount (A) = P[1 + (r/100)]^n
Principal (P) = ₹ 26400
Time period (n) = 2 years 4 months
Rate % (R) = 15% compounded annually
Steps:
First, we will calculate Compound Interest (C.I) for the period of 2 years
A = P[1 + (r/100)]^n
= 26400[1 + (15/100)]^2
= 26400[(100/100) + (15/100)]^2
= 26400 × 115/100 × 115/100
= 26400 × 23/20 × 23/20
= 26400 × 1.3225
= 34914
C.I. = A - P
= 34914 - 26400
= 8514
Now, we will find Simple Interest (S.I) for the period of 4 months
Principal for 4 months after C.I. for 2 years = ₹ 34,914
We know that,
S.I = PRT/100
Here T = 4 months = 4/12 years = 1/3 years
S.I. for 4 months = (1/3) × 34914 × (15/100)
= (1/3) × 34914 × (3/20)
= 34914/20
= 1745.70
Total interest for 2 years 4 months = 8514 + 1745.70
= 10259.70
Total amount for 2 years 4 months = 26400 + 10259.70
= ₹ 36659.70

Question :-
Kamala borrowed ₹ 26400 from a Bank to buy a scooter at a rate of 15% p.a. compounded yearly. What amount will she pay at the end of 2 years and 4 months to clear the loan?(Hint: Find A for 2 years with interest is compounded yearly and then find S.I. on the 2nd year amount for 4/12 years.)
P = Rs. 26400
Rate of Interest = 15 %
Time = 2 years and 4 months
In this question, first, we will compute the compounded interest for 2 years.
A = P(1 + R/100)ⁿ
⇒ 26400(1 + 15/100)²
⇒ 26400 × 115/100 × 115/100
⇒ A = Rs. 34914
Now, Simple Interest for 4 months will be calculated and Principal will be Rs. 34914.
Simple Interest = (P × R × T)/100
⇒ (34914 × 15 × 4)/(12 × 100)
⇒ 2094840/1200
⇒ Rs. 1745.7
Total Amount = 34914 + 1745.7
= Rs. 36659.7
- Hence, after 2 years and 4 months, Kamala will pay Rs. 36659.7 to clear the loan.
