Correct Answer: Rs 2580
Solution : $P$ = Rs.8000, $r$ = 0.15 (15% expressed as a decimal), $n$ = 1 (compounded annually), and $t$ = 2 years. Amount = $P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ Amount = 8000×$({1.15}^{2})$ ⇒ A = $8000×1.3225$ ⇒ A = 10,580 Now, the compound interest (CI) can be calculated using the formula: CI = A − P ⇒ CI = 10,580 − 8000 ⇒ CI = 2,580 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 2,580.
