Answer:

The correct answer is

A. 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

The zscore is used to solve problems of normally distributed samples.

This score indicates the percentage of a certain measure. It can be found looking at the z table.

For example, if a measure has a percentile of 75%, it is in the 100%-75% = highest 25 percent of all the measures.

Z = 1 has a pvalue 0.8413. So it is in the highest 1-0.8413 = 0.1587 = 16% percent of firms in the industry.

The correct answer is

A. 16%

What is the balance after 15 years in a savings account that earns 2% interest compounded bimonthly when the initial deposit is
motikmotik

The amount will be equal to $1348.07. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Compound interest is the interest levied on the interest. The formula for the calculation of compound interest is given as:-

\rm A = P(1+\dfrac{r}{n})^{nt}

Compound Interest Formula:

A = Account Balance

P = Principle/Initial Amount

r = Rate of Interest (decimal)

n = Number of times compounded (per year)

t = Number of Years

Given Information

Account Balance = ?

It is given that the balance after 15 years in a savings account earns 2% interest compounded bi-monthly when the initial deposit is 1000.

This is because we are gaining money, so the multiplier should be greater than 1. We already added 1, which is 100% so you simply add the 0.02 for the extra 2%.

Number of times compounded per year = 6

This is because it is being compounded bi-monthly, or once every 2 months. 12 months divided by 2 months is 6 months, so 6 times a year.

Number of years = 15

Solve by plugging the given values into the formula.

\rm A = P(1+\dfrac{r}{n})^{nt}

\rm A = 1000(1+\dfrac{0.02}{6})^{6 \times 15}

A = 1000 x (1.14)

A = $1348.07.

Therefore, the amount will be equal to $1348.07. The correct option is A.
