Suppose $50,000 is kept in an account paying 10% compounded monthly. How much will be in the account after 10 ¾ years? Round to the nearest cent, i.e. two decimal places. At what interest rate (in percent form), compounded monthly, will $1000 double in 10 years? Round to two decimal places. (Do not forget the percent sign on your final answer)
