Assume that John deposits $8,000 into an account that has a 2.4% annual interest rate for 8 years. (a) If the interest is compounded annually, there will be $ in the account. (b) If the interest is compounded monthly, there will be $ in the account. (c) If the interest is compounded weekly, there will be $ in the account. (d) If the interest is compounded daily, there will be $ in the account. (e) If the interest is compounded continuously, there will be $ in the account.

a) Compounded Annually = $9671.41  

b) Compounded Monthly = $9691.51

c) Compounded Weekly = $9692.93  

d) Compounded Daily = $9693.30

e) Compounded Continuously = $9693.36  

Explanation:

Solution:

This question is very simple. We just need to know the basic formula.

Data Given:

P = Principal Amount = $8000

i = interest rate = 2.4% annual

n = period or year = 8 years.

So, our basic formula is:

A = P  

a) Compounded Annually.

A = P  

A = 8000

A = $9671.41  

b) Compounded Monthly:

1 year = 12 months.

A = P  

A = 8000  

A = $9691.51

c) Compounded Weekly:

1 year = 52 weeks

A = P  

A = 8000  

A = $9692.93

d) Compounded Daily:

1 year = 365 days

A = P  

A = 8000  

A = $9693.30

e) Compounded Continuously:

For this we have following formula:

A = P

A = P

A = $9693.36
