✔ 最佳答案
the amount after TWO years
$30000 (1+5%) ^8
(5% coz quarter-yearly, 20%p.a. means 5% per quarter,
8 coz quarter-yearly, 2 years = compounded 8 times)

the amount after REMAINING 3 years
$30000 (1+5%) ^8 (1+3%) ^12
(3% and 12 times similarly)

the interest for 5 years = AMOUNT - principal

a) 30000 X (1+ 20%)^2 X (1+12%)^3 = $60692.89

b) 60692.89 - 30000 = 30692.89
