Suppose you buy a cd for $500 that earns 2.5% apr and is compounded quarterly. the cd matures in 3 years. how much will this cd be worth at maturity?

A=$538.82

Step-by-step explanation:

We're going to use the compounded interest formula:

A=P(1+r/n)^n*t

Where,

A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest

P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)

r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

t = t is the amount of time at which you're checking how much it's worth (yrs)

Using this information, we can use:

A=500(1+0.025/4)^3*4

A=500(1+0.00625)^12

A=500(1.00625)^12

A=500(1.07763259886)

A=538.82

A=$538.82

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
