Step 1
The formula is: $A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ where: - A is the amount in the account after t years - P is the principal amount (initial deposit) - r is the annual interest rate (as a decimal) - n is the number of times interest is compounded per year - t is the Show more…

Suppose that $4000 is placed in an account that pays 16% interest compounded each year. Assume that no withdrawals are made from the account. Follow the instructions below. Do not do any rounding. (a) Find the amount in the account at the end of 1 year. (b) Find the amount in the account at the end of 2 years.

Use the appropriate compound interest formula to find the amount that will be in each account, given the stated conditions. $42,000 invested at 2% annual interest for 3 years compounded (a) annually; (b) semiannually (a) If the interest is compounded annually, there will be $ in the account after 3 years. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest cent as needed.) (b) If the interest is compounded semiannually, there will be $ in the account after 3 years. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest cent as needed.)
