उत्तर
P = Rs 10,000
Rate = 10% per annum = 5% per half year
n = `1 1/2` year
There will be 3 half years in `1 1/2` years.
A = Rs `[10000(1 + 5/100)^3] = Rs[10000(1 + 1/20)^3]`
= Rs `(10000 xx 21/20 xx 21/20 xx 21/20)` = Rs 11576.25
C.I. = A − P
= Rs 11576.25 − Rs 10000 = Rs 1,576.25
The amount for 1 year and 6 months can be calculated by first calculating the amount for 1 year using the compound interest formula, and then calculating the simple interest for 6 months on the amount obtained at the end of 1 year.
The amount for the first year has to be calculated first
A = Rs `[10000(1 + 10/100)^1] = Rs[10000(1 + 1/10)]`
= Rs `(10000 xx 11/10)`= Rs 11000
By taking Rs 11,000 as the principal, the S.I. for the next `1/2` year will be calculated.
S.I. = Rs `((11000xx10xx1/2)/100)` = Rs 550
∴ Interest for the first year = Rs 11000 − Rs 10000 = Rs 1,000
∴ Total compound interest = Rs 1000 + Rs 550 = Rs 1,550
Therefore, the interest would be more when compounded half yearly than the interest when compounded annually.
