Team Careers360 · Accepted Answer

Correct Answer: Rs. 13,230

Solution : When compounded annually, $ A= P(1+\frac{R}{100})^{T}$, Where $A$ is the total amount, $P$ is the principal amount, $R$ is the rate of interest per annum, and $T$ is the time in years.
Given:
$P$ = Rs. 12,000
$R$ = 5% per annum
$T$ = 2 years
Substituting these values into the formula,
$ A= 12000(1+\frac{5}{100})^{2}$
$ = 12000 imes(\frac{21}{20})^{2}$
$ = 12000 imes(\frac{441}{400})$
$ = 30 imes 441 $
$ = 13230 $
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 13,230.
