Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  How much will you have at the middle of the first year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 0.5 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

substituting the values

A=300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(0.5\right)}

A=300\cdot \frac{2.06}{2}

A=\frac{618}{2}

A=309 $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest,  from compound interest on an original principal of  $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 2 times per year  over 0.5 years is $ 309.00.

Part b) How much at the end of one year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 1 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

so substituting the values

A\:=\:300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(1\right)}

A=300\cdot \frac{2.06^2}{2^2}

A=318.27 $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest,  from compound interest on an original principal of  $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 2 times per year  over 1 year is $ 318.27.
