Problema Solution

suppose that 9,000 is invested at 3.5% compounded quarterly. Find the total amount of this investment after 10 years. Round to the nearest cent

Answer provided by our tutors

P = $9,000 the principal

t = 10 years

r = 0.035 or 3.5% annual rate

m = 4 compounding period per year

i = 0.035/4 interest rate per period

n = 10*4 = 40 total number of compounding periods

A = future value


A = P(1 + i)^n


A = 9000(1 + 0.035/4)^40


A = $12,752.18
