Solution
1) P = Rs 8,000
R = 5% per annum
n = 2 years
A = Rs `[8000(1 + 5/100)^2] = Rs (8000(1 + 1/20)^2)`
= Rs `(8000 xx 21/20 xx 21/20)` = Rs 8820
2) The interest for the next one year, i.e. the third year, has to be calculated.
By taking Rs 8,820 as principal, the S.I. for the next year will be calculated.
S.I = Rs `((8820 xx 5 xx 1)/100)= Rs 441`
