Solution

P = Rs 15000 ;

(i) Interest for the first year

T = 1 year , R = 6% for first year

`= ("Rs"  15000 xx 6 xx 1)/100`

= Rs 900

(ii) Principal for the second year 

= Amount After one year 

= Rs 15000 + Rs 900

= Rs 15900

(iii) Interest for the second year

T = 1 year , R = 7% for second year

= `("Rs"  15900 xx 7 xx 1)/ 100`

= Rs 1113

Therefore Amount at the end of 2nd year

= Rs 15900 + Rs 1113

= Rs 17013

Amount = Rs 17013

C.I. = A - P

= Rs (17013 - 15000)

C.I. = Rs 2013
