Answer:
Amount she would have in 2 years at a simple interest of is
$5000 + ($5000 x 0.048 x 2) = $5480
Amount she would have in 2 years at a 4.1 % / year compounded semi- annually is :
$5000 x ( 1 +0.041/2)^4 = $5422.78
the first option yields a higher value in two years when compared with the second option. Thus, the first option is the best one to choose
Step-by-step explanation:
Future value with simple interest = principal + interest
Interest = principal x interest rate x time
0.048 x 5000 x 2 = 480
future value = $480 + 5000 = $5480
The formula for calculating future value with compounding:
FV = P (1 + r)^nm
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
m = number of compounding
N = number of years
5000 x ( 1 + 0.041 / 2)^(2 x 2) = $5422.78
1. 18,000 x 1.03 (3% increase) either type 1.03 into your calculator 25 times or use an exponent ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
18000 x 1.03^25 (25 years past) =37,688.00
√42 -- 6.48074069841
√150 -- 12.2474487139
√245 -- 15.6524758425
√398 -- 19.9499373433
