Answer: the value of the account after 6 years is $101559.96
Step-by-step explanation:
If $64,000 is invested in an IRA account, then
Principal = $64,000
So P = 64,000
The rate at which $64000 was compounded is 8%
So r = 8/100 = 0.08
If it is compounded once in a year, this means that it is compounded annually (and not semi annually, quarterly or others). So
n = 1
We want to determine the value of the account after 6 years, this means
time, t = 6
Applying the compound interest formula,
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
A = amount after n number of years
A = 64000( 1 + 0.08/1)^1×6
A = 64000(1.08)^6
A= 64000×1.58687432294
A= 101559.956668416
Approximately $101559.96 to 2 decimal places
Continuous compounding is the mathematical limit that compound interest can reach.
It is the limit of the function A(1 + 1/n) ^ n as n approaches infinity. IN theory interest is added to the initial amount A every infinitesimally small instant.
The limit of (1 + 1/n)^n is the number e ( = 2.718281828 to 9 dec places).
Say we invest $1000 at daily compounding at yearly interest of 2 %. After 1 year the $1000 will increase to:-
1000 ( 1 + 0.02/365)^365 = $1020.20
with continuous compounding this will be
1000 * e^1 = $2718.28
Answer:
4k = 24, k = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
4k = 24
4k / 4 = 24 / 4
k = 6
