3. Patrice deposited $10,000 with a bank in a 10-year certificate of deposit that earns 4% interest, compounded daily. Determine the interest earned if the compound interest factor is 1.49179200.
$3,917.92
$14,917.92
$4,917.92
$5,082.08

Answer

The compound interest factor is given as 1.49179200. To find the interest earned, multiply the principal by the compound interest factor and subtract the principal:

  1. Interest = Principal × (Compound Interest Factor - 1)
  2. Interest = $10,000 × (1.49179200 - 1)
  3. Interest = $10,000 × 0.49179200
  4. Interest = $4,917.92

The correct answer is $4,917.92.
