Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Answer 1

Answer:

Future value, A = $4740.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = $2700

Interest rate = 5.25% = 5.25/100 = 0.0525

Time = 11 years

Number of times, n = 1

To find the future value, we would use the compound interest formula;

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where;

A is the future value.

P is the principal or starting amount.

r is annual interest rate.

n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year.

t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$A = 2700(1 + \frac{0.0525}{1})^{1*11}$

$A = 2700(1 + 0.0525)^{11}$

$A = 2700(1.0525)^{11}$

$A = 2700(1.7557)$

Future value, A = $4740.39
