Your Answer Brother
Explanation:
We are going to use the formula of compound interest which is written below:
C.I.=P(1+rn)nt−P
Where P: the Principal (or original amount)
r: annual rate of interest
n: number of times interest compounded per time period
t: number of years on which the interest has applied
It is given that:
The principal (or original amount) is Rs 8000.
Annual rate of interest is 20%.
The interest is compounding quarterly means n = 4.
The interest compounded quarterly for 9 months means t=912year.
Now, substituting these values in the compound interest formula we get,
C.I.=8000(1+20100(4))4×912−8000C.I.=8000(1+(0.25×0.2))3−8000C.I.=8000(1+.05)3−8000C.I.=9261−8000C.I.=1261
So, the compound interest on Rs 8000 at 20% per annum for 9 months compounded quarterly is 1261.
