Question

What is the amount, including the interest, if Rs. 45,000 is invested for 3 years at the rate of 10% per annum compounded annually?

A.

Rs. 59,895

B.

Rs. 59,900

C.

Rs. 59,885

D.

Rs. 59,890

Correct option is A

​Given:
Principal (P) = ₹45,000
Rate (r) = 10% per annum
Time (t) = 3 years
Formula Used:
A=P(1+r100)tA = P \left(1 + \frac{r}{100} \right)^t​​
Solution:
A=45000(1+10100)3=>A=45000(1+0.1)3=>A=45000×(1.1)3=>A=45000×1.331=>A=59,895A = 45000 \left(1 + \frac{10}{100} \right)^3 \\\Rightarrow A = 45000 \left(1 + 0.1 \right)^3 \\\Rightarrow A = 45000 \times (1.1)^3 \\\Rightarrow A = 45000 \times 1.331 \\\Rightarrow A = ₹59,895
Alternate Solution:
Let the Principal be 1000 unit

Amount = 1000 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 = 1331 unit
1000 unit = R. 45000
1 unit = Rs. 45
1331 unit = 1331 ×45=\times 45=  Rs. 59895​
