Find the compound interest on $30000 in 2years at 4% per annum, the interest being compounded half-yearly?
Answer/Solution
$2472.96
Steps/Work
Principle = $10000
Rate = 2% half yearly = 4 half years
Amount = 30000*(1 + 2/100)^4 = 30000 * 51/50 * 51/50 * 51/50 * 51/50
= $32472.96
C.I. = 32472.96-10000 = $2472.96
Answer is D
Rate = 2% half yearly = 4 half years
Amount = 30000*(1 + 2/100)^4 = 30000 * 51/50 * 51/50 * 51/50 * 51/50
= $32472.96
C.I. = 32472.96-10000 = $2472.96
Answer is D
