Solution
Principal (P) = Rs.15000
Rate (R) = 6% p.a.
Period (n) = 5 years
Interest for the first year =`("PRT")/100`
`=(15000xx6xx1)/100`
= Rs.900
∴ Amount for the first year = Rs.15000 + 900
= Rs.15900
Principal for the second year= Rs.15900
Interest for the second year =`(15900xx6xx1)/100`
= 159 x 6
= Rs. 954
