The daily interest multiplier for a savings account paying 2% annual interest for 180 days
is 1.010050. What compound amount will be in a savings account if $5,000 is
on deposit in the savings account for 180 days?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$5,050.25  

Explanation:

The daily interest multiplier has already been stated to reflect interest earned over a 180-day investment timing horizon, hence , in order to determine the compound of $5,000 saved for 180 days, we simply multiply the daily interest multiplier for 180 days by the actual amount saved as shown below:

FV=PV*interest multiplier

FV=future value=amount in the savings account after 180 days=the unknow

PV=the amount placed in savings account= $5,000

interest multiplier= 1.010050

FV=$5,000* 1.010050

FV=$5,050.25
