Respuesta :

Answer:

growth rate is 0.9%

Explanation:

given data

time = 10 year

present value = $4.50

future value = $4.92

to find out

growth rate

solution

we will apply here future value formula that is

future value = present value × [tex](1+\frac{r}{100})^{t}[/tex]   ......1

here r is growth rate and t is time

put here value in equation 1

future value = present value × [tex](1+\frac{r}{100})^{t}[/tex]

4.92 = 4.50 × [tex](1+\frac{r}{100})^{10}[/tex]

[tex](1+\frac{r}{100})[/tex] = 1.009

r = 1.009 -1

r = 0.9 %

so growth rate is 0.9%
