Corden opens an investment account with one deposit of $15,000. He receives statements each quarter, just after the interest is applied. Which formula should he use to calculate the future value?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]A=15,000(1+\frac{r}{4})^{4t}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to  

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]  

where  

A is the Final Investment Value  or Future Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

[tex]tP=\$15,000\\n=4[/tex]  

substitute in the formula above

[tex]A=15,000(1+\frac{r}{4})^{4t}[/tex]
