उत्तर

Given: P = Rs. 5,000; A = Rs. 6,272 and n = 2 years.

(i) ∴ `"A" = "P"( 1 + r/100)^n`

⇒ `6,272 = 5,000( 1 + r/100 )^2`

⇒ `6,272/5,000 = ( 1 + r/100 )^2`

⇒ `784/625 = ( 1 + r/100 )^2`

⇒ `(28/25)^2 = ( 1 + r/100 )^2`

On comparing,

`28/25 = 1 + r/100`

On solving, we get
r = 12%

(ii) Amount at the third year

= `5,000( 1 + 12/100 )^3`

= `5000(28/25)^3`

= Rs. 7,024.64
