Claudio is searching for a bank so that in two years time, he will have $4000 from his $3000 investment.
What rate, per annum, would a bank need to offer Claudio, if the interest is compounded quarterly?
i tried to plug this in to the compund interest formula, of course, considering the %26quot;compunded quarterly%26quot;. I ended up having to use log, but my answer does not check out. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can approach this problem?
Compound interest problem?title loans
4000=3000*(1+i/4)^8
4/3=(1+i/4)^8
1+i/4=(4/3)^(1/8)=1.0366
i/4=.0366
i=.1465=14.65%
if you can find such an account, please share that info with the rest of us! :)
Compound interest problem?
loan
4000=3000(1+i/4)^8
4/3=(1+i/4)^8
1+i/4=(4/3)^(1/8)=1.0366
i/4=0.0366
i=0.1465
which is the same as 14.65%
