Question: 89

5. If Mr. Green borrowed $2000 at 12% simple interest for two years, what would the total interest charge be

  • A. $240
  • B. $360
  • C. $420
  • D. $480

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

The correct answer is (D). Each year, 12% is charged as interest. On $2000, 12% interest is $2000 × 0.12 = $240. For two years, the amount is $240 × 2 = $480.
