Answer : 2. "Rs. 2.04"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Rs. 2.04 Explanation: Compound Interest for 1 1⁄2 years when interest is compounded yearly = Rs.(5304 - 5000) Amount after 11⁄2 years when interest is compounded half-yearly Compound Interest for 1 1⁄2 years when interest is compounded half-yearly = Rs.(5306.04 - 5000) Difference in the compound interests = (5306.04 - 5000) - (5304 - 5000)= 5306.04 - 5304 = Rs. 2.04
