Lena invested her savings in two investment funds. The $6000 that she invested in Fund A returned a 6% profit. The amount that s
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The amount that Lena will invest in fund B would be $4000.

Explanation:

Given information -

Amount invested in fund A - $6000

Return earned on fund A - 6%

Let us assume amount invested in fund B be x

Return earned on fund B - 1%

Return on both funds together - 4%

Let us assume the total amount of fund invested be ($6000 + x)

Now using simple equation , we will take out the value of x which is the amount invested in fund B -

$6000 X 6% + x X 1% = 4% ( $6000 + x )

= $360 + .01 x = $240 + .04 x

= $360 - $240 = .04 x - .01 x

$120 = .03 x

x = $120 / .03

= $4000.

Answer:

Explanation:

                          Interest Factors

<u>Periods          6%       7%          8%                  9%            10%             11 %</u>

1                 1.0600      1.0700     1.0800        1.0900     1.1000        1.1100

2                1.1236      1.1449         1.1664         1.1881      1.2100        1.2321

3                1.1910       1.2250      1.2597         1.2950     1.3310         1.3676

4                1.2625      1.3108     1.3605          1.4116       1.4641          1.5181

1)

Future value paying simple interest = Principal + [( principal * interest) * investment period]

Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + [ ( $2,000 * 9%) * 3]

Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + 540

Future value paying simple interest = $2,540

2)

Future value paying compound interest = Present value * ( 1 + interest)n

Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * ( 1 + 0.09)3

Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * 1.295029

Future value paying compound interest = $2,590.058

3)

Difference = $2,590.058 - 2,540

Difference = $50.058
