At what rate percent per annum at ci will principal of 2000 amount to 2315.25 in 3 years

Given

Show

Principal (P) = Rs 2000

Amount (A) = Rs 2315.25

Period (n) = 3 years

Let the rate of interest be r% p.a.

WKT

A / P = {1 + (r / 100)}n

2315.25 / 2000 = {1 + (r / 100)}3

{1 + (r / 100)}3 = (231525) / (100 × 2000)

On calculating, we get,

\{1+(\mathrm{r} / 100)\}^{3} = 9261 / 8000

\{1+(\mathrm{r} / 100)\}^{3} = (21 / 20)3

We get,

1 + (r / 100) = 21 / 20

r / 100 = (21 / 20) – 1

r / 100 = 1 / 20

We get,

r = 100 / 20

r = 5

Therefore, rate of interest = 5% p.a.

Given:

Compound interest on Rs.2000 for 3 years = Rs.315.25 

Formulas used:

Amount = Principal + Interest 

Amount = P(1 + r/100)n

Calculation:

Amount = 2000 + 315.25 = Rs.2315.25 

Amount = P(1 + r/100)n

⇒ 2315.25 = 2000(1 + r/100)3

⇒ 231525/200000 = (1 + r/100)3

⇒ ∛9261/8000 = 1 + r/100 

⇒ 21/20 - 1 = r/100 

⇒ (21 - 20)/20 = r/100 

⇒ 1/20 = r/100 

⇒ 1 = r/5 

⇒ r = 5 

∴ The rate of interest is 5% per annum.

Find the rate percent per annum, if Rs 2000 amount to Rs 2315.25 in an year and a half, interest being compounded six monthly.

Let the rate percent per annum be R.
Because interest is compounded every six months, n will be 3 for 1.5 years.
Now, 
\[A = P \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^n \]
\[2, 315 . 25 = 2, 000 \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^3 \]
\[ \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^3 = \frac{2, 315 . 25}{2, 000}\]
\[ \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^3 = 1 . 157625\]
\[ \left( 1 + \frac{R}{200} \right)^3 = \left( 1 . 05 \right)^3 \]
\[1 + \frac{R}{200} = 1 . 05\]
\[\frac{R}{200} = 0 . 05\]
\[ = 10\]
Thus, the required rate is 10 % per annum.

Solution : Given:<br>Principle `(P)=Rs.2000`<br>Amount `(A)=Rs.2315.25`<br>`n=1.5` years means `3` half-years.<br>The rate has to be calculated half-yearly, therefore let `R` be the rate of half-yearly.<br>As we know that,<br>`A=P(1+R/100)^n`<br>`therefore 2315.25=2000(1+R/100)^3`<br>`2315.25/2000=(1+R/100)^3`<br>`231525/2000times100=(1+R/100)^3`<br>`9261/8000=(1+R/100)^3`<br>`(21/20)^3=(1+R/100)^3`<br>`21/20=1+R/100`<br>`21/20-1=R/100`<br>`(21-20)/20=R/100`<br>`1/20=R/100`<br>`R=100/20`<br>`R=5%`.<br>Hence, the rate will be `5%` half yearly and `10%` yearly.

More solved problems on compound interest using formula are shown below.

1. The simple interest on a sum of money for 3 years at 6²/₃ % per annum is $ 6750. What will be the compound interest on the same sum at the same rate for the same period, compounded annually?

Solution:

Given, SI = $ 6750, R = \(\frac{20}{3}\)% p.a. and T = 3 years.

sum = 100 × SI / R × T

= $ (100 × 6750 × ³/₂₀ × 1/3 ) = $ 33750.

Now, P = $ 33750, R = \(\frac{20}{3}\)% p.a. and T = 3 years. 

Therefore, amount after 3 years 

= $ {33750 × (1 + (20/3 × 100)}³ [using A = P (1 + R/100)ᵀ]

= $ (33750 × 16/15 × 16/15 × 16/15) = $ 40960.

Thus, amount = $ 40960.

Hence, compound interest = $ (40960 - 33750) = $ 7210.

2. The difference between the compound interest, compounded annually and the simple interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 6% per annum is $ 18. Find the sum.

Solution:

Let the sum be $ 100. Then,

SI = $ (100 × 6 × 2/100) = $ 12

and compound interest = $ {100 × (1 + 6/100)² - 100}

= $ {(100 × 53/50 × 53/50) - 100} = $ (2809/25 - 100) = $ 309/25

Therefore, (CI) - (SI) = $ (309/25 – 100) = $ 9/25

If the difference between the CI and SI is $ 9/25, then the sum = $ 100.

If the difference between the CI and SI is $ 18, then the sum = $ (100 × 25/9 × 18 )

= $ 5000.

Hence, the required sum is $ 5000.

Alternative method

Let the sum be $ P.

Then, SI = $ (P × 6/100 × 2) = $ 3P/25

And, CI = $ {P × (1 + 6/100)² - P}

= $ {(P × 53/50 × 53/50) - P} = $ (\(\frac{2809}{2500}\)P - P) = $ (309P/2500)

(CI) - (SI) = $ (309P/2500 – 3P/25) = $ (9P/2500)

Therefore, 9P/2500 = 18

⇔ P = 2500 × 18/9

⇔ P = 5000.

Hence, the required sum is $ 5000.

3. A certain sum amounts to $ 72900 in 2 years at 8% per annum compound interest, compounded annually. Find the sum.

Solution:

Let the sum be $ 100. Then,

amount = $ {100 × (1 + 8/100)²}

= $ (100 × 27/25 × 27/25) = $ (2916/25)

If the amount is $ 2916/25 then the sum = $ 100.

If the amount is $ 72900 then the sum = $ (100 × 25/2916 × 72900) = $ 62500.

Hence, the required sum is $ 62500.

Alternative method

Let the sum be $ P. Then,

amount = $ {P × (1 + 8/100)²}

= $ {P × 27/25 × 27/25} = $ (729P/625)

Therefore, 729P/625 = 72900

⇔ P = (72900 × 625)/729

⇔ P = 62500.

Hence, the required sum is $ 62500.

4. In this question the formula is when the interest is compounded annually to solve this problem on compound interest. 4. At what rate per cent per annum will Ron lends a sum of $2000 to Ben. Ben returned after 2 years $2205, compounded annually?

Solution:

Let the required rate be R% per annum.

Here, A = $ 2205, P = $ 2000 and n = 2 years.

Using the formula A = P(1 + R/100)ⁿ,

2205 = 2000 × ( 1 + R/100)²

⇒ (1 + R/100)² = 2205/2000 = 441/400 = (21/20)²

⇒ ( 1 + R/100) = 21/20

⇒ R/100 = (21/20 – 1) = 1/20

⇒ R = (100 × 1/20) = 5

Hence, the required rate of interest is 5% per annum.

5. A man deposited $1000 in a bank. In return he got $1331. Bank gave interest 10% per annum. How long did he kept the money in the bank?

Solution:

Let the required time be n years. Then,

amount = $ {1000 × (1 + 10/100)ⁿ}

= $ {1000 × (11/10)ⁿ}

Therefore, 1000 × (11/10)ⁿ = 1331 [since, amount = $ 1331 (given)]

⇒ (11/10)ⁿ = 1331/1000 = 11 × 11 × 11/ 10 × 10 × 10 = (11/10)³

⇒ (11/10)ⁿ = (11/10)³

⇒ n = 3.

Thus, n = 3.

Hence, the required time is 3 years.
