    Find the compound interest on Rs 4000 at 24% per annum for 3 months, compounded monthly.

    A)  Rs 244.83

    B)  Rs 232.12

    C)  Rs 212

    D)  None of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Here P = 4000, r = 24 and \[t=\frac{3}{12}\] \[\therefore \] \[CI=P\,\left[ {{\left( 1+\frac{r}{100\times 12} \right)}^{12\times t}}-1 \right]\] \[=4000\left[ \,{{\left( 1+\frac{24}{100\times 12} \right)}^{12\times \frac{3}{12}}}-1 \right]\] \[=400\,\left[ {{\left( \frac{51}{50} \right)}^{3}}-1 \right]=\frac{4000\times 7651}{50\times 50\times 50}=\text{Rs}\,244.83\]
