Solution:
★ Firstly, we have to find the amount:
According, to the question by using the formula, we get:

Here,

- Principal (P) = Rs 5000
- Rate of Interest (r) = 10% p.a
- Time Period (n) = 2 years
So by putting their values, we get:















Hence, the amount is Rs 6078.
★ Now, we have to find the compound Interest:
According, to the question by using the formula, we get:

Here,
- Amount (A) = Rs 6078
- Principal (P) = Rs 5000
So, by putting their values we get:-


Hence, Compound Interest is Rs 1078.
