Mr. Sayyad kept Rs. 40,000 in a bank at 8% compound interest for 2 years. Mr. Fernandes invested Rs. 1,20,000 in a mutual fund for 2 years. After 2 years, Mr. Fernandes got Rs. 1,92,000. Whose investment turned out to be more profitable?
For Mr. Sayyad,
Principal amount, P = 40,000
Rate, r = 8%
Time period = n = 2year
Compound Interest (C.I) = ![]()
C.I = ![]()
= ![]()
= ![]()
= ![]()
= 64×104
= Rs. 6656
% profit(p) = ![]()
![]()
![]()

For Fernandes,
Principal rate, P = Rs. 1,20,000
Time period, n = 2yr
Principal amount, A = Rs. 1,92,000
Profit = 1,92,000 – 1,20,000 = Rs. 72,000.
%Profit (p) = ![]()
