at 10% in 1 1 years compounded half yearly ? 2
-
- ₹ 40,000
- ₹ 36,000
- ₹ 32,000
- ₹ 28,000
Correct Option: C
If Interest is compounded half yearly ,
| Time = | years | |
| 2 |
| ⇒ Time = | × 2 = 3 half years | |
| 2 |
| Rate = | = 5% per half year , Difference = C.I. - S.I. = ₹ 244 | |
| 2 |
[∵ when r → r/2, then t → 2t]
Using the given formula ,
| Difference = P | ![]() | + | ![]() | ||
| 1000000 | 10000 |
| ⇒ 244 = P | ![]() | + | ![]() | ||
| 1000000 | 10000 |
| ⇒ 244 = P | ![]() | ![]() | |
| 1000000 |
| ⇒ 244 = P | ![]() | ![]() | |
| 1000000 |
| ⇒ P = | = ₹ 32000 | |
| 7625 |
