Interest earned is $7444.22

Explanation:

The amount to earn from Second City Bank is the interest that would have been received at the end of the eight years,

In order to determine the amount of interest,it would be nice to first of all compute the future value-the worth of the savings at the end of eight year using the below formula:

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

PV is the $7,500 invested

r is the compound rate of return is 9%

N is the number of years the amount was invested which is eight years

FV=$7,500*(1+9%)^8

FV=$ 14,944.22  

Hence Interest =FV-PV

                         =$ 14,944.22 -$7,500

                         =$7444.22
