Detailed Solution

Given,
Principal (P)=Rs 160000 Rate (R)=20% p.a. Time (T)=1 year   Also given interest is compounded quarterly Rate of interest compounded quarterly = 20 4 %per quarter year   Time (T) will also be taken quarterly that is T=4   quarters
 The formula to calculate the amount is given by
A=P 1+ R 100 n                            (1)  
Compound interest can be evaluated by Amount-Principal; where A=  Amount, P=  Principal, R=  Rate, n=  Time
Substitute the given value in equation (1) and solve for amount A,
16000 1+ 20 400 4 16000 1.05 4 19448.1  
Therefore, the amount 4 quarters (1 year) is Rs 194481
 Compound interest (CI),
CI=AP CI=194481-160000 CI=Rs 34481   Therefore, The Compound interest is Rs 34481
Hence, the correct option is 1.
