alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

From the information given

T = 8 months = 8/12 = 2/3 years

P = $3000

R = 9.3%

Therefore

I = (3000 × 9.3 × 2/3)/100

I = 18600/100

I = $186

The maturity value (in dollars) of this loan would be

3000 + 186 = $3186
