If the principal, interest rate, and time are identical, you will earn more interest with compound interest than you will with simple interest Question 4 options: True False

Respuesta :

Answer:

The statement is TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

To Prove :  if principal , interest rate , and time are identical for both compound interest and simple interest , then CI is more than SI .

Let we take the value :

Principal = Rs 1000

Rate of interest = 4%

Time period = 2 year

At First , for compound interest

Amount = Principal [tex]( 1+ \frac{Rate}{100})^{Time}[/tex]

A  = 1000  [tex]( 1+ \frac{4}{100})^{2}[/tex]

So , A = 1000 ([tex]\frac{26}{25}[/tex])²

Or, A = 1000 × 1.0816 = 1081.6

So , CI = A - P

      CI = 1081.6  - 1000 = Rs 81.6

At second , for simple interest

SI = [tex](\frac{P \times R \times T}{100})[/tex]

Or, SI =   [tex](\frac{1000 \times 4 \times 2}{100})[/tex]

I.e  SI = Rs 80

Hence from the above two solution of Compound Interest and Simple Interest , it is proved that interest obtain from CI is more than SI . PROVED
