Answer 1

Answer:

78 255.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest is:

A = P(1 + r)ⁿ

Data:

    P = 58 000

APR = 3.75 %

     t = 8 yr

Calculations:

n = 8 × 12 = 96

r = 0.0375/12 = 0.003 125

A = 58 000(1+ 0.003 125)⁹⁶

  = 58 000 × 1.003 125⁹⁶

  = 58 000 × 1.349 2275

  = 78 255.20

Your balance will be 78 255.20.
