Open in App
Solution

It is given that
Principal (P) = 8000
Rate of interest (r)= 10% p.a.
Period (n) = 4 years
We know that
Amount = P(1+r/100)n
Substituting the values
=8000(1+10/100)4
By further calculation
= 8000×11/10×11/10×11/10×11/10
= 11712.80
Here
CI = A - P
Substituting the values
= 11712.808000
= 3712.80
