A
$10$
B
$12$
C
$13$
D
None of these
Solution
(a) Here, $P=1000, A=1331$ and $t=3$
$P=100\left[\left(\frac{A}{P}\right)^{1 / t}-1\right] \%$ p.a.
$=100\left[\left(\frac{1331}{1000}\right)^{1 / 3}-1\right] \% p . a$
$=100\left[\left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^{3 \times \frac{1}{3}}-1\right]=100 \times \frac{1}{10}=10 \% p.a$
