Solution

Here, P = Rs. 76, 000; r = 10 °/o p.a.; t = `2 1/2` years

For the first year: t = 1 year 

S.I. = `("P" xx "r" xx "t")/100`

S.I. = `("Rs"  76000 xx 10 xx 1)/100`

S.I. = Rs7, 600

A=P+S.I.

=Rs (76,000 + 7,600) =Rs 83,600 =new principal

For the second year: t = 1 year; P=Rs 83,600

S.I. = `("P" xx "r" xx "t")/100`

S.I. = `("Rs"  83600 xx 10 xx 1)/100`

S.I. = Rs8, 360

A=P+S.I.

A=Rs (83,600 + 8,360) =Rs 91960= new principal

For the third year: t = 1/2 year; P=Rs 91,960

S.I. = `("P" xx "r" xx "t")/100`

S.I. = `("Rs"  91960 xx 10 xx 1)/(100 xx 2)`

S.I. = Rs4, 598

A=P+S.I.

A=Rs (91, 960 + 4,598) =Rs 96,558

C.I. = Interest in first year+ interest in second year+ interest in third year

C.I.= Rs (7,600 + 8,360 +4,598) =Rs 20,558
