Solution
Given:
P = Rs 64, 000
R = 5 % p . a .
n = 1 . 5 years
When the interest is compounded half - yearly, we have:
\[A = P \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^{2n} \]
= Rs \[64, 000 \left( 1 + \frac{5}{200} \right)^3 \]
= Rs \[64, 000 \left( 1 . 025 \right)^3 \]
= Rs 68, 921
Also,
CI = A - P
= Rs 68, 921 - Rs 64, 000
= Rs 4, 921
Thus, the required interest is Rs 4, 921.
