Solution
Loan taken (P) = ₹ 16000
Rate (R) = 15% p.a.
Time (T) = 2 years
∴ Interest for the first year
`="PRT"/100=(16000xx15xx1)/100`
= ₹2400
Amount after one year = ₹16000 + 2400
= ₹18400
At the end of one year amount paid back = ₹9000
Balance amount = ₹18400 − 9000
= ₹9400
Interest for the second year = `(9400xx15xx1)/100`
= ₹1410
Amount after second year = ₹9400 + 1410
= ₹10810
