    Hello Harish,

    We need to calculate the S.I. for one year, so that we can calculate the Rate by putting it in formula of simple interest.
    But if you are confused that why it is being calculated by S.I. formula rather than Compound interest formula. Then please be informed that you can calculate it either way, answer will be same. So to save time and to solve it quickly we use Simple Interest formula.
