Answer 1

Answer:

$678.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Principal, P = $600

Rate = 3.09% = 0.0309

Period, t = 4 years

Compounding times per period, n = 12 (monthly)

The compound interest formula :

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

A = 600(1 + 0.0309/12)^(12*4)

A = 600(1 + 0.002575)^48

A = 600(1.002575)^48

A = 600 * 1.1313834

A = 678.83004

Worth in 4 years = $678.83
