Question

How much will jay investment be worth in eight years if she invested $13,500 at 5.2% in interest compounded semiannually

Answer 1

13,500 at 5.2 for 8 years compounded semi-annually.

Total = Principal * (1 + rate/n) ^n * years

where "n" = number of compounding periods per year.

Total = 13,500 * (1 + .052 / 2) ^ 2 * 8

Total = 13,500 * (1.026) ^ 16

Total = 13,500 * 1.5078487226

Total = 20,355.96
