Mr Sathya invested money in FD. How much will he get on maturity. if Rs. 14,500 is invested at 20% per annum compound interest for 6 months, compounded quarterly? Correct Answer Rs. 15,986.25
Given:
Principal = Rs.14500
Rate = 20% p.a.
Time = 6 months
Compounded quarterly.
Calculation:
Rate % = 20pa
Rate% of 1 month = 20/12
Rate% for 3month = (20/12)×3 = 5%
Effective rate% = {5 + 5 + (5×5)/100} = {10 + .25} = 10.25%
10.25% of 14500
⇒ {10.25/100}× 14500 = 1486.25
∴ Amount = 14500 + 1486.25 = Rs.15986.25
