Solution : Given: Principle = Rs. 60000 The rate of interest = 10% per annum Time = 5 years We know, $\text{Compound interest}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}-\text{Principal}$ = $60000(1+\frac{10}{100})^5-60000$ = $60000(\frac{11}{10})^5-60000$ = Rs. 36630.60 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 36630.60.
