I think that the question you are trying to ask is . . . A college student takes out a $7500 loan from a bank. What will the balance of the loan be after one year(assuming the student has not made any payments yet)
a. if bank charges 3.8% interest each year ?
b. if the bank charger 5.3% interest each year ?
Answer:
(a) $7785
(b) $7897.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Loan = $7500
We need to find the balance of the loan be after one year(assuming the student has not made any payments yet).
The formula for amount or loan is
A = P( 1 + r)^t .... (1)
where, P is principle, r is rate of interest and t is time in years.
(a) If bank charges 3.8% interest each year.
r = 3.8% = 0.038
Substitute P=7500, r=0.038 and t=1 in equation (1).
A = 7500 (1 + 0.038)^1
A = 7500 (1.038)
A = 7785
Therefore, the balance of the loan be after one year is $7785.
(b) If the bank charger 5.3% interest each year.
r = 5.3% = 0.053
Substitute P=7500, r=0.053 and t=1 in equation (1).
A = 7500 (1 + 0.053)^1
A = 7500 (1.053)
A = 7897.5
Therefore, the balance of the loan be after one year is $7897.5.
Answer: Storing money in a bank isn’t passive income unlike investing in stocks and bonds. Therefore, the money in the bank won’t earn you money (unless you save money and you earn a little from the interest rates) but stock and bonds most of the times can make more money than the amount first put in. But then stocks and bonds are higher risk compared to just letting money sit in a bank and letting the interest rate help it grow.
