Emilee put 3000 in a 2 year cd paying 4% interest, compounded monthly. After 2 years, she withdrew all her money. What was the amount of the withdrawal?

Respuesta :

3,000×(1+0.04÷12)^(24)
=3,249.43

Answer:

3249.43

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly compound interest can be determined from the following formula:

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

Where A is the final amount after interest, P is the intital amount invested, r is the interest rate, n is number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the time in years.

We need to express rate as abn equivalent decimal number:

[tex]4/100=0.04[/tex]

∴ [tex]A=3000*(1+0.04/12)^(12*2)=3249.43[/tex]
