of capital is 10%.

B $165,288
C $200,000
D $181,818
Dear Sir,
the answer is given D but i can’t agree this answer
because there is period for 2 years
=200,000/1,1^2=165,288
but the calculation is given just for a year
please clarify this issue
Hi,
I agree with your answer unless I’m missing something daft. It would be D if the question was asking for 20X3 amount.
Thanks
