उत्तर

Let the time period be n years.
Then, we have: 
\[\text{ CI = P }\left( 1 + \frac{R}{100} \right)^n - P\]
\[163 . 20 = 2, 000 \left( 1 + \frac{4}{100} \right)^n - 2, 000\]
\[2, 163 . 20 = 2, 000 \left( 1 . 04 \right)^n \]
\[ \left( 1 . 04 \right)^n = \frac{2, 163 . 20}{2, 000}\]
\[ \left( 1 . 04 \right)^n = 1 . 0816\]
\[ \left( 1 . 04 \right)^n = \left( 1 . 04 \right)^2 \]
On comparing both the sides, we get: 
n = 2
Thus, the required time is two years.
