Solution
For 1st year:
P = Rs. 50,000; R = 12% and T = 1 year
∴ Interest = Rs `(50000 xx 12 xx 1)/100` = Rs. 6000
And, Amount = Rs. 50,000 + Rs. 6,000 = Rs. 56,000
Since Money repaid = Rs. 33,000
∴ Balance = Rs. 56,000 - Rs. 33,000 = Rs. 23,000
For 2nd year:
P = Rs. 23000; R = 15% and T = 1 year
∴ Interest = Rs `(23000 xx 15 xx 1)/100`= Rs 3450
And, Amount = Rs. 23,000 + Rs. 3,450 = Rs. 26,450
Thus, Jaya must pay Rs. 26,450 at the end of 2nd year to clear her debt
