Sammy calculated the total amount that he deposited by <em>adding up the total amount deposited in each account.</em>

The Checking account is used to pay for fixed and variable essential expenses. In this account, Sammy deposited $1,712.

The Cash account is used for non-essential expenses, like snacks, etc. A total of $260 was deposited into this account.

The Emergency Savings account is used for both other predictable and unpredictable expenses. A total of $340 was deposited into the account.

For the Vacation Savings account, it is used to carter for other long-term expenses. A total of $50 was deposited into the account.

When these accounts are added up, the total deposit made by Sammy can be calculated to be $2,362 ($1,712 + $260 + $340 + $50).
