20. Find the future amount at the end of 2 years for an investment of $20,000 that earns 15% at the end of each year.
$25,150
$22,350
$26,450
$27,950

Answer

To find the future amount, we use the formula for compound interest: A = P(1 + r)^n, where:

  1. P is the principal amount ($20,000).
  2. r is the annual interest rate (15% or 0.15).
  3. n is the number of years (2).

Substitute the values into the formula:

A = 20000(1 + 0.15)^2

A = 20000(1.15)^2

A = 20000(1.3225)

A = 26,450

The future amount is $26,450.
