Solution

Savings at the end of every year = Rs. 3000

For 2nd year

P = Rs. 3000

R = 10%

T = 1 year

I = `[ 3000 xx 10 xx 1]/[100]` = 300

A = 3000 + 300 = Rs. 3300

For third year, savings = 3000

P = 3000 + 3300 = Rs. 6300

R = 10%

T = 1 year

I = `[ 6300 xx 10 xx 1]/100` = Rs. 630

A = 6300 + 630 = Rs. 6930

Amount at the end of 3rd year

= 6930 + 3000

= Rs. 9930
