Solution

For Ist year

Principal (P) = Rs.12,000

Rate (R) = 10%

Time (T) = 1 year

I = Interest =`(12,000xx10xx1)/100`

= 120 × 10

= Rs.1200

Amount = P + I = Rs.12,000 + Rs.1200 = Rs.13,200

For IInd year

P = Rs.13,200, R = 10%, Time (T) = 1 year

∴ Interest =`(13,200xx10xx1)/100` = 132 × 10 

= Rs.1320

∴ Amount in 2 years = Rs. (13,200) + (1320)

= Rs.14520

Compound interest in 2 years = Rs.1200 + Rs.1320 = Rs.2520

[or directly = Rs.14520 − Rs.12000 = Rs.2520]
