Ricardo invests $8650 in an account that earns 3.9% interest compounded weekly. What is the total amount of his investment after 9 years? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Respuesta :

Based on the amount he invested and the period of his investment, Ricardo's investment worth in 9 years will be $12,286.

The period of compounding is weekly so you first need to convert the interest rate to a weekly rate as well as the period of investment:

= 3.9% / 52 = 3.9/52%

= 9 years x 52 weeks per year = 468

Value of the investment after 9 years is:

= Amount x ( 1 + rate) ^ no. of periods

= 8,650 x (1 + 3.9/52%)⁴⁶⁸

= 12,285.599

= $12,286

In conclusion, the investment would be worth $12,286.
