Find the compound interest on rs. 10000 at 12% rate of interest for 1 year, compounded half-yearly.

Solution:

Here, Principal (P) = Rs. 10000, Rate of Interest (R) = 10% = 5% (compounded half yearly)

Time(n) = 1\ \frac{1}{2} years = 3 years (compounded half yearly)

Amount (A) = P\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^n

= 10000\left(1+\frac{5}{100}\right)^3

= 10000\left(1+\frac{1}{20}\right)^3

= 10000\left(\frac{21}{20}\right)^3

= 10000\times\frac{21}{20}\times\frac{21}{20}\times\frac{21}{20}

= Rs. 11,576.25

Compound Interest (C.I.) = A – P

= Rs. 11,576.25 – Rs. 10,000 = Rs. 1,576.25

If it is compounded annually, then

Here, Principal (P) = Rs. 10000, Rate of Interest (R) = 10%, Time (n) = 1\ \frac{1}{2} years.

Amount (A) for 1 year = P\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^n

= 10000\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^1

= 10000\left(1+\frac{1}{10}\right)^1

= 10000\left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^1

= 10000\times\frac{11}{10}

= Rs. 11,000

Interest for \frac{1}{2} year = \frac{11000\times1\times10}{2\times100}=RS.\ 550

\therefore Total amount = Rs. 11,000 + Rs. 550 = Rs. 11,550

Now, C.I. = A – P = Rs. 11,550 – Rs. 10,000

= Rs. 1,550

Yes, interest Rs. 1,576.25 is more than Rs. 1,550.
