Solution

Given that Ranbir borrows Rs. 20000 at 12% compound interest.

For the first year,

Interest I = `(20000 xx 1 xx 12)/100`

= Rs. 2400

Thus, amount after one year = Rs. 20000 + Rs. 2400

= Rs. 22400

∴ Money repaid = Rs. 8400

∴ Balance = Rs. 22400 – Rs. 8400

= Rs. 14000

For the second year,

Interest I = `(14000 xx 1 xx 12)/100` 

= Rs. 1680

Thus the amount = Rs. 14000 + Rs. 1680

= Rs. 15680

Ranbir paid Rs. 9680 at the end of second year.

∴ Loan outstanding at the beginning of the third year Rs. (15680 – 9680) = Rs. 6000
