Simple Interest Rate Formula: A = P(1 + rt)
- <em>P</em> is principle amount
- <em>r</em> is rate
- <em>t</em> is time
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify variables.</em>
<em>P</em> = $52,400
<em>r</em> = 6%
<em>t</em> = 5
<u>Step 2: Find Current Investment Value</u>
- Substitute in variables [Simple Interest Rate Formula]: A = 52,400(1 + 0.06 · 5)
- [Order of Operations] Evaluate: A = $68,120
<u>Step 3: Find Total Return</u>
- Set up: R = A - P
- Substitute in variables: R = 68,120 - 52,400
- [Order of Operations] Evaluate: R = $15,720
