Answers

  1. Answer:

    Y=2,000[1.0125]^{4t}

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Amount deposit P = $2,000

    Time t = t year (yearly) = 4t(quarterly)

    Rate r = 5% annual = 5/4 = 1.25% (quarterly) = 0.0125

    Find:

    Amount after t year (Y)

    Computation:

    A = P[1+r]ⁿ

    So,

    Y = 2,000[1+0.0125]^{4t} \\\\Y = 2,000[1.0125]^{4t}
