QUESTION :
3. A man brows borrowed Rs. 16000 for three years under the following terms.
20% Simple Interest for the first 2 years.
20% Compound Interest for the remaining 1 year on the amount due after 2 years , the interest being compounded half yearly.
SOLUTION :
Let us first Calculate the first Part.
We have the following information...
The initial Principle is Rs. 16000
Time is 2 years.
Rate is 20%
Type of Interest is Simple Interest compounded annually.
We know that,
SI = PTR / 100
Where :
P is the Principal
T is the time taken
R is the rate
So, Substituting the required values we get :
SI = 16000 × 2 × 20 / 100
=> SI = 160 × 40
=> SI = Rs. 6400
So, now the Principal for the third year Becomes :
Principle + SI
=> Rs. 16000 + Rs. 6400
=> Rs. 22400
Now, for Compound Interest, the principle is Rs. 22400
Rate is 20% Compounded Half Yearly.
Time is 1 year or two half years.
So,
We know that :
A = P × [ { 1 + { R / 2 } / 200 ] ^ 2n
=> A = 22400 × [ 1 1 / 100 ] ^ 2
Solving we get :
A = Rs. 27104
So Compound Interest
=> Amount - Principal
=> Rs. 27104 - Rs. 22400
=> Rs. 4704
