Solution

To calculate the value of your investment after 3 years with an annual interest rate of 6% compounded annually, you can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

Where: A = the final amount P = the principal amount (initial investment) r = the annual interest rate (in decimal form) n = the number of times the interest is compounded per year t = the number of years

In this case, the principal amount (P) is ₹5,000, the annual interest rate (r) is 6% (or 0.06 in decimal form), the interest is compounded annually (n = 1), and the investment period (t) is 3 years.

Plugging in these values into the formula, we have:

A = ₹5,000(1 + 0.06/1)^(1*3) A = ₹5,000(1 + 0.06)^3 A = ₹5,000(1.06)^3 A = ₹5,000(1.191016) A ≈ ₹5,955.08

Therefore, the value of your investment after 3 years will be approximately ₹5,955.08.
