    Question

    Find the compound interest on an amount of Rs.8,000 at 5% p.a. for 2 years, compounded annually.

    A.

    Rs.920

    B.

    Rs.820

    C.

    Rs.780

    D.

    Rs.630

    Correct option is B

    Given:
    Amount = 8000
    Rate = 5%
    Time = 2 years
    Formula Used:
    A=P×(1+r100)tA = P × (1 + \frac{r }{ 100})^t​​

    Solution:
    =>A=P×(1+r100)t =>A=8000×(1+5100)2 =>A=8000×(1.05)2 =>A=8820=> A = P × (1 +\frac{ r }{ 100})^t \\\ \\=> A = 8000 × (1 + \frac{5 }{100})^2 \\\ \\=> A = 8000 × (1.05)^2 \\\ \\=> A = 8820​​
    Compound Interest = Amount - Principal
    => CI = 8820 - 8000
    => CI = 820
