उत्तर
For 1st half - year :
P= Rs. 15,000; A= Rs. 15,600 and T = ½ year
Interest = Rs. 15,600 - Rs. 15,000= Rs. 600
Rate= `["I" xx 100 ]/["P" xx "T"] %
= [600 xx 100]/[15,000 xx 1/2]` % = 8% .
For 2nd half - year :
P = Rs. 15,600; R = 8% and T = `1/2` year
Interest = Rs. `[15,600 xx 8 xx 1/2 ]/[100]` = Rs. 624
Amount = Rs. 15,600 + Rs. 624 = Rs. 16,224
For 3rd half - year :
P = Rs. 16,224; R = 8 % and T = `1/2` year
Interest = Rs. `[16,224 xx 8 xx 1/2 ]/[100]` = Rs. 648.96
Amount = Rs. 16,224 + Rs. 648.96 = Rs. 16,872.96.
