Solution

Given: 
P = Rs 16, 000
R = 12 . 5 % p . a . 
n = 3 years
We know that: 
\[A = P \left( 1 + \frac{R}{100} \right)^n \]
\[ = 16, 000 \left( 1 + \frac{12 . 5}{100} \right)^3 \]
\[ = 16, 000 \left( 1 . 125 \right)^3 \]
 = Rs 22, 781 . 25
Now, 
CI = A - P
= Rs 22, 781 . 25 - Rs 16, 000
= Rs 6, 781 . 25
