D. Because the interest is compounded more frequently, you will get more money. This is because it allows you to earn interest on previous interest more frequently.

Answer : D

The same amount of principal is invested in different accounts earning the same interest rate.

The account will not grow without interest

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1

Calculate the simple interest

A = P + P*r*t = 100 + 100*.05*1= 105

In simple interest, $100 invested , amount earned = $105

Now we calculate earning interest compounded annually

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t*n}

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1, for compounded annually n= 1

A= 100(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^{1*1}= 105

For interest compounded annually, $100 invested , amount earned = $105

Now we calculate earning interest compounded daily

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t*n}

Lets assume , initial amount P= 100, rate of interest = 5%=>r= 0.05 and

number of years, t= 1, for compounded annually n= 365

A= 100(1+\frac{0.05}{365})^{1*365}= 105.26

For interest compounded daily, $100 invested , amount earned = $105.26

So, An account compounded daily will have greatest accumulated value at the end of one year

dangina [55]
-19m-19 = 4m-4m+19
-19m-19 = 0+19
-19m = 19+19
-19m = 38
m = 38÷(-19)
m = -2
