Solution
P = Rs. 10,000, R = 6 °/o p.a.
Interest for first year
`= ("Rs" 10000 xx 6 xx 1)/100`
= Rs600
Amount due after 1st year
=Rs. 10,000 +Rs. 600 =Rs 10,600
Amount paid after 1st year = Rs. 5,600
Balance amount = Rs. 10,600 - Rs. 5,600 =Rs. 5,000
Interest for second year when r = 8°/o p.a.
`= ("Rs" 5000 xx 8 xx 1)/100`
= Rs 400
Amount due after 2nd year
= Rs. 5,000 + Rs. 400
=Rs 5,400
Prakash has to return Rs 5,400 to Rajesh at the end of second year.
