Question : The compound interest of Rs. 30,000 at 7% per annum for a certain time is Rs. 4,347. The time is:
Option 1: 3 years
Option 2: 4 years
Option 3: 2 years
Option 4: 2.5 years
Correct Answer: 2 years
Solution : Sum, $P$ = Rs. 30,000 Rate, $R$ = 7% Compound Interest = Rs. 4,347 Let $n$ be the time. When compounded annually, Compound interest after n years = $P[(1+\frac{R}{100})^{n}–1]$, where $P$ is principal, $R$ is the rate of interest per annum compounded annually. So, 4347 = 30000$[(1+\frac{7}{100})^{n}–1]$ $⇒1.07^n = \frac{4347}{30000}+1 = 1.1449$ $⇒1.07^n = 1.07^2$ $\therefore n$ = 2 Hence, the correct answer is 2 years.
