Answer:
Amount (A) = 58,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Principal (P) = 50,000
Rate (R) = 12%
Time (T) = 1 year and 5 months
-> First, we will calculate the Compound Interest for 1 year
-> A = P ( 1 + R/100 ) ⁿ
-> A = 50,000 ( 1 + 12/100 ) ¹
-> A = 50,000 ( 1 + 3/25 ) ¹
-> A = 50,000 ( 28/25 ) ¹
-> A = 56,000
-> Now, we can find the Compound Interest for 5 months
-> SI = P x R x T/100
-> SI = 56,000 x 12 x (5/12)/100
-> SI = 560 x 12 x (5/12)/1
-> SI = 2800
-> 56,000 + 2800 = 58,800
-> Therefore, Anita will pay back 58,800
