Explanation:

5% is the rate of interest. 20% of the interest amount is paid as tax.

i.e 80% of the interest amount stays back.

if we compute the rate of interest as 80% of 5% = 4% p.a., we will get the same value.

The interest accrued for 3 years in compound interest = 3 x simple interest on principal + 3 x interest on simple interest + 1 x interest on interest on interest.

= 3 x (200) + 3 x (8) + 1 x 0.32 =600 + 24 + 0.32 = 624.32

The amount at the end of 3 years = 5000 + 624.32 = 5624.32

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
