Correct Answer: Rs. 12,000
Solution : Let the principal be Rs. $P$. Amount = Rs. 13,230 Rate of interest compounded annually, $R$ = 5% Time, $n$ = 2 years So, $13230 = P(1 + \frac{5}{100})^{2}$ ⇒ $13230 = P \times \frac{21}{20} \times \frac{21}{20}$ ⇒ $P =\frac{13230\times20\times20}{21\times21}$ ⇒ $P =$ Rs. 12,000 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 12,000.
