ANSWER: $49,950

EXPLANATION: The savings account will need $49,950 to earn enough interest of $9.99 Below-Minimum-Balance Fee. The calculation is simple. Let the total money be P and we have a goal of $9.99. So, multiplying P with 0.02% should give the answer $9.99. Mathematically writing, the equation should be P x 0.02% = $9.99. The next step for solving the equation would be P = $9.99 ÷ 0.0002 which is $49,950.
