Answer 1

It will take 19 years for the countdowns to reach $ 14,989.87

Given that Heather invest $ 3377 in a retirement account with a fixed annual interest rate of 8% compounded two times per year, to determine how long will it take for the countdowns to reach $ 14,989.87 the following calculation must be performed:

Initial value x (1 + interest rate / compounding times) ^ (years x compounding times) = Compound interest

• 3377 x (1 + 0.08 / 2) ^ 2X = 14,989.87
• 3377 x 1.04 ^ 2X = 14,989.87
• 3512.08 ^ 2X = 14,989.87
• X = 19

Therefore, it will take 19 years for the countdowns to reach $ 14,989.87.
