Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Given:

Principal (P) = ₹2000

Interest Rate (r) = 10% per annum

Time (n) = 1 year

According to the formula:

Amount (A) = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ

Compound Interest = A − P

A = 2000(1 + 10/100)¹

= 2000 × 1.1

= 2200

Compound Interest = 2200 − 2000 = ₹200
