Question

Calculate the amount and the compound interest on 10000 for 2 years at 8% per annum, compounded annually​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find:

Compound interest (C.l)

Given:

Principle amount (p) = 10,000.

Interest rate (r) = 8% per annum = 8/100 =

0.08.

Compounded (n) = 1 year.

Time in years (t) = 2.

Formula:

A = P(1+r/n)^nt.

A = 10,000(1+0.08/1)^2

A = 10,000(1+0.08)^2

A = 10,000(1.08)^2

A = 10,000(1.1664)

A = 11664.

Now, we need to find the C.I

C.I-A - P

C.I = 11664- 10,000

C.I = 1664.
