Question

You are twenty years old and are considering depositing $1,500 into a savings account that will pay 6% annually. When you cash out your account at age 65, how much of it will be compound interest

Answer 1

Answer:

$20,646.92

Explanation:

We are to calculate the future value of the amount :

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years   = 65 - 20 = 45

$1500(1.06)^45 = $20,646.92
