It looks like your query is incomplete - specifically, the principal amount (Rs 0 is likely a placeholder) and the interest rate per annum are missing. To calculate the equal yearly installments for a loan with compound interest, I need these details:

  • Principal amount borrowed (P)
  • Annual compound interest rate (r%)
  • Number of years (n = 2)
  • Number of installments (2 equal yearly installments)

How to Calculate Equal Yearly Installments with Compound Interest

Assuming:

  • Principal = P
  • Annual interest rate = r% (expressed as a decimal, e.g., 10% = 0.10)
  • Number of years = 2
  • Number of equal installments = 2 (one at the end of each year)

Step 1: Understand the problem

Raghav borrows P rupees, to be repaid in 2 equal installments at the end of each year, with compound interest applied annually.

Step 2: Formula for equal installments (EMI)

The installments are like an annuity that pays off the loan with compound interest. The formula for each installment (A) is:

A=P×r(1+r)n(1+r)n−1A=P\times \frac{r(1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1}A=P×(1+r)n−1r(1+r)n​

Where:

  • PPP = Principal
  • rrr = annual interest rate in decimal
  • nnn = number of installments (2)

Example Calculation

Suppose:

  • Principal P=10,000P=10,000P=10,000 Rs
  • Interest rate r=10%=0.10r=10%=0.10r=10%=0.10
  • Number of installments n=2n=2n=2

Calculate:

A=10,000×0.10×(1+0.10)2(1+0.10)2−1=10,000×0.10×1.211.21−1=10,000×0.1210.21≈10,000×0.5762=5762A=10,000\times \frac{0.10\times (1+0.10)^2}{(1+0.10)^2-1}=10,000\times \frac{0.10\times 1.21}{1.21-1}=10,000\times \frac{0.121}{0.21}\approx 10,000\times 0.5762=5762A=10,000×(1+0.10)2−10.10×(1+0.10)2​=10,000×1.21−10.10×1.21​=10,000×0.210.121​≈10,000×0.5762=5762

So, each installment will be approximately Rs 5,762.

Please provide the principal amount and interest rate so I can compute the

exact installments for you!
