Question

Find the compound interest for 3 years on Rs 5000, if the rate of interest for the successive years are 8%, 6% and 10% respectively.

hintHint:

Find the total amount for 3 successive years then subtract the principal amount from it.

The correct answer is: 1296.4 Rupees


    Complete step by step solution:
    Given that principal amount P = 5000
    Number of years T = 3
    Let R1 = 8%,R2 = 6% and R3 = 10%

    Total amount , A equals P cross times open parentheses 1 plus R subscript 1 over 100 close parentheses cross times open parentheses 1 plus R subscript 2 over 100 close parentheses cross times open parentheses 1 plus R subscript 3 over 100 close parentheses …(i)
    On substituting the known values in (i), we get

    A equals 5000 cross times open parentheses 1 plus 8 over 100 close parentheses cross times open parentheses 1 plus 6 over 100 close parentheses cross times open parentheses 1 plus 10 over 100 close parentheses

    not stretchy rightwards double arrow A equals 5000 cross times 108 over 100 cross times 106 over 100 cross times 110 over 100
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow A equals 6296.4
    We know that, Compound interest ( CI) = total amount (A) - principal amount (P)
    So, Compound interest ( CI) = 6296.4 - 5000 = 1296.4 Rupees
