1. Example : Find Compound Interest (CI)





1. Principal P = 1000, Rate R = 10, Time T = 2 years, find CI (Interest Compounded Annually)

Solution:
Principal P=1000

Rate of interest R=10%

Time T=2 year

Find CI, (Interest Compounded Annually)

We know that
A=P*(1+R/(100n))^(nT)

:.A=1000 xx (1+10/(100xx1))^(1xx2)

:.A=1000 xx (1+0.1)^(2)

:.A=1000 xx 1.21

:.A=1210

Now, CI=A-P

:.CI=1210-1000

:.CI=210


2. Principal P = 5000, Rate R = 10, Time T = 2 years, find CI (Interest Compounded Annually)

Solution:
Principal P=5000

Rate of interest R=10%

Time T=2 year

Find CI, (Interest Compounded Annually)

We know that
A=P*(1+R/(100n))^(nT)

:.A=5000 xx (1+10/(100xx1))^(1xx2)

:.A=5000 xx (1+0.1)^(2)

:.A=5000 xx 1.21

:.A=6050

Now, CI=A-P

:.CI=6050-5000

:.CI=1050


3. Principal P = 5000, Rate R = 20, Time T = 3 years, find CI (Interest Compounded Annually)

Solution:
Principal P=5000

Rate of interest R=20%

Time T=3 year

Find CI, (Interest Compounded Annually)

We know that
A=P*(1+R/(100n))^(nT)

:.A=5000 xx (1+20/(100xx1))^(1xx3)

:.A=5000 xx (1+0.2)^(3)

:.A=5000 xx 1.728

:.A=8640

Now, CI=A-P

:.CI=8640-5000

:.CI=3640
