1. How much interest will TK. 1,000 earn in one year at an annual rate of 8% if interest is compounded every 6 months ?

  • A. 82.4
  • B. 82.4
  • C. 82.4
  • D. 82.4

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Interest of 1st 6 months = 1000*8% = 80/2 = 40

∴ Sum = 1000 + 40 = 1040

now, Interest of last 6 months = 1040*8% = 83.2/2 = 41.6

Thus, Sum of Interest in year = (40 + 41.60) = 81.60 .
