after 2 years? give me the steps plz......
Answer Posted / jitendra
rate increases at 1.5% more than the inflation rate which is
6.5%
This means paper rate increase is 1.5+6.5 = 8% per year
For the first year the increase is 8 % or (8/100)x25 = 2
So the new cost is 25+2 = 27
For the second year the increase is the same = (8/100)x27 = 2.16
So the cost = 27+2.16 = 29.16
