Correct Answer: Rs. 32


Solution : Principal Amount, $P$= Rs. 5000
Rate of interest, $R$ = 8%
Time period, $T$ = 2 years
Difference between compound interest and simple interest for 2 years
= $\frac{{PR^2}}{100^2}$
= $\frac{{5000 × 8^2}}{100^2}$
= $\frac{{50 × 64}}{100}$
= Rs. 32
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 32.
