Suppose you invest $1,000 in an account paying 8% interest per year. a. What is the balance in the account after 3 years? How much of this balance corresponds to "interest on interest"? b. What is the balance in the account after 25 years? How much of this balance corresponds to "interest on interest"? a. What is the balance in the account after 3 years? The balance in the account after 3 years is $. (Round to the nearest cent.) How much of this balance corresponds to "interest on interest"? The amount that corresponds to interest on interest is $. (Round to the nearest cent.) b. What is the balance in the account after 25 years? The balance in the account after 25 years is $. (Round to the nearest cent.) How much of this balance corresponds to "interest on interest"? The amount that corresponds to interest on interest is $. (Round to the nearest cent.)

Step 1
08 (8% as a decimal), n = 1 (interest is compounded annually), and t = 3 years. A = 1000(1 + 0.08/1)^(1*3) A = 1000(1.08)^3 A = 1000(1.259712) A = $1,259.71 The balance in the account after 3 years is $1,259.71. Show more…

A. Use the appropriate compound interest formula to compute the balance in the account after the stated period of time $16,000 is invested for 5 years with an APR of 3% and daily compounding. The balance in the account after 5 years is $nothing. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) B. How much must be deposited today into the following account in order to have a $140,000 college fund in 12 years? Assume no additional deposits are made. An account with monthly compounding and an APR of 2.5% $nothing should be deposited today. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest cent as needed.)

(Round to the nearest cent as needed.) The interest paid at 2% is $. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) b) The total amount accumulated at 4% is $. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) The interest paid at 4% is $. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) c) The total amount accumulated at 8% is $. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) The interest paid at 8% is $. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.) d) Is the outcome predictable? A. Yes, the total amount doubles if the interest rate doubles. B. Yes, the interest increases by half if the interest rate doubles.
