Given:
Rate = 20%
Principal = Rs. 4500
Time = 6 months
Formula used:
For Compound Interest,
A = P{1 + (R/100)}n
where,
P = Principal
CI = Compound interest
R = Rate
n = Time(years)
Calculations:
When compounded quarterly,
R → R/4 and n → 4n
R = 20/4 = 5
n = 4 × (6/12) = 2
Calculating CI for 2 year,
A = P{1 + (R/100)}n
⇒ A = 4500{1 + (5/100)}2
⇒ A = 4500(21/20)2
⇒ A = 4500(441/400)
⇒ A = Rs. 4961.25
∴ He will get Rs. 4961.25 at maturity.
Total interest% = Interest of first year + Interest of second year
Total interest in percentage = 5 + (5 + 5% of 5) = 10.25%
Amount = P × (100 + Total interest%)/100 = 4500 × (110.25)/100
⇒ Amount = Rs. 4961.25
∴ He will get Rs. 4961.25 at maturity
