Detailed Solution

Given,
Future value, A = Rs. 10404 ,
Time period, t = 2 years,
Interest rate, r = 2% per annum.
If P be the principal amount that is compounded yearly at an annual interest rate of r then the future value, A after t years. is given by,
A=P 1+ r 100 t  
Applying the future value of compound interest formula and calculating the interest P.
Now substitute, A = 10404, t = 2 and r = 2,
10404=P 1+ 2 100 2   Solve for P.
10404=P 1+0.02 2 10404=P 1.02 2 10404=1.0404P P=10000   Thus, the required sum is Rs. 10000.
Therefore, option (3) is correct.
