Correct Answer: Rs. 27,300
Solution :
Here, Principal amount, $P=25000$
And rate of interests, $R_{1}= 4$% , $R_{2}=5$% for first and second year, respectively.
So, time periods: $N_{1}=1, N_{2}=1$
For successive rates,
Final amount, $A= P(1+\frac{R_{1}}{100})^{N_1}(1+\frac{R_{2}}{100})^{N_2}$
= $25000×(\frac{104}{100})×(\frac{105}{100})$
= $27300$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 27,300.
