Given:
Sudhir lent Rs. 2000/- at compound interest at 10% payable yearly.
Prashant lent Rs. 2000/- at compound interest at 10% payable half-yearly
To Find:
Difference in the interest received by
Sudhir and Prashant at the end of one year.
Solution:
Sudhir Case:
Principal (P) = Rs. 2000/-
Rate (r) = 10%
Number of times interest applied per time period (n) = 1
Time period = 1 year
Using Compound interest formula:
A = P( 1 + r/n )^nt
A = 2000( 1 + 10/100)¹
A = 2000( 110/100 )
A = Rs. 2200/-
Prashant Case:
Principal (P) = Rs. 2000/-
Rate (r) = 10%
Number of times interest applied per time period (n) = 2
Time period = 1 year
Using Compound interest formula:
A = P( 1 + r/n )^nt
A = 2000( 1 + 10/100×2)²
A = 2000( 105/100 × 105/100)
A = Rs. 2205/-
Difference in the interest received by Sudhir and Prashant at the end of one year :-
= 2205 - 2200
= Rs. 5/-
Hence, Rs. 5/- is the required answer.
