Correct Option: D

Amount after 3 years = 400(1 + 5/100)3 + 400(1 + 5/100)2 + 400(1 + 5/100)
= 400(1+ 5/100) {1+ 5/100)2 + (1 + 5/100) + 1 }
= 400(105/100) {(105/100)2 + (105/100) + 1}
= 400(21/20) {(21/20)2 + 21/20 + 1}
= 400(441/400 + 21/20 + 1)
= 400(441 + 420 + 400/400)
= 420(1261/400)
= Rs.1324.05
