Problema Solution

What would be the compound amount after 19 years on an investment of $42,000 with an 11% interest rate compounded annually? (Points : 2.5)

Answer provided by our tutors

The formula for the compound amount is


A = P (1 + (r/n))^ (n*t)


P = $42,000

r = 0.11 (11% interest rate)

n = 1 (interest compounded annually)

t = 19 years


A = 42000*((1 + (0.11/1))^19)


A = $305060.44 approximately


After 19 years the compound amount would be $305,060.44.
