Solution
Principal (P) = Rs.9600
Rate (R) = 10% p.a.
Period (n) = 3 years
(i) ∴ Interest for the first year =`"PRT"/100`
`=(9600xx10xx1)/100`
= Rs.960
(ii) Amount at the end of first year
= P + S.I.
= Rs.9600 + 960
= Rs.10560
(iii) Principal for the second year = Rs.10560
Interest for the second year =`(10560xx10xx1)/100`
= Rs.1056
∴ Amount after second year = Rs.10560 + 1056 = Rs.11616
(iv) Principal for the third year = Rs.11616
Interest for the third year =`(11616xx10xx1)/100`
= 116.16 × 10
= Rs.1161.60
