[ Simple interest = P×T×R×100 Amount after first quarter = Rs. 8000 + Rs. 400 = Rs. 8400 Or principal for the second year = Rs. 8400

Compound interest for 9 months or 3 quarters = Rs. 400 + Rs. 420 + Rs. 441 = Rs. 1261

P = Rs 8, 000T = 9 months = 3 quartersR = 20 % per annum = 5 % per quarter\[A = 8, 000 \left( 1 + \frac{5}{100} \right)^3 \]\[ = 8, 000 \left( 1 . 05 \right)^3 \] = 9, 261The required amount is Rs 9, 261.Now, CI = A - P= Rs 9, 261 - Rs 8, 000
