Detailed Solution

Given,
Amount, A = Rs 4913
Rate, R = 1212 % p. a. compounded half-yearly
Time, T = 18 months
We know that 6 months = 1 half year
 T = 3×6 months  T = 3 half years   The formula to calculate the amount is given by,
A=P 1+ R 100 T  
  4913=P 1+ 12.5 200 3 4913=P 1.0625 3 P= 4913 1.0625 3 P= Rs 4096  
Thus, sum of Rs 4096 will turn to Rs. 4913 in 18 months if the rate of interest is 12 1/2 % per annum, compounded half-yearly.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
