Annabelle wants to make the most economical decision, so she chooses the 3- year car loan so that after the loan is paid off, she’ll be able to invest in a structured savings account. If Annabelle put $200 into a savings account each month with an annual interest rate of 3.2% interest compound monthly, how much money would she have in her account after 2 years?

pymnt=\textit{periodic payments}\to &200\\
r=rate\to 3.2\%\to \frac{3.2}{100}\to &0.032\\
n=

\textit{times it compounds per year}\\

[tex] \bf A=200\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{0.032}{12} \right)^{12\cdot 2}-1}{\frac{0.032}{12}} \right]
\\\\\\
A= 200\left( \cfrac{(1.002\overline{66})^{24}-1}{0.002\overline{66}} \right)\implies A\approx 4950.1193 [/tex]
