Detailed Solution


We know that,
Principal (P) = Rs.60000
Rate (R) = 12% per annum compounded half yearly= 6% per half year
Number of years (n) = 6 months=1 half year
Calculating the amount after 6 months by using compound interest formula,
A=P 1+ R 100 n A=60000 1+ 6 100 1 A=60000 100+6 100 1 A=60000 106 100 1 A=63600   Hence, the amount after 6 months is Rs.63600.
Therefore, option 2 is correct.
