at 0.48% annual interest compounded daily for 6 years



Answer :

Answer:

$333.73 interest earned

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation used:

[tex]A = P( 1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt} \\[/tex]

Breakdown:

P = principal amount

r = rate of interest

n = number of times compounded annually

t = total period

Knowns:

P = $1000

r = 0.48% or 0.048

n = 365 times

t = 6 years

Solving for amount of interest earned:

Input the values.

[tex]A = 1000(1 + \frac{0.048}{365})^{2190} \\A = 1333.73[/tex]

Subtract 1000 to get amount of interest earned.

1333.73 - 1000 = 333.73

amount of interest earned = $333.73 (aproxim)
