Answer:

$25,689.77

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]AV=PV(1+i)^n\\AV=24750(1+.0125)^3\\25689.77[/tex]

Answer:

$25,689.775

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest has to be in decimal form. So 1.25/100=0.0125

Plug everything into the equation for compound equation [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{t})^{n}^{t}[/tex]

Which is A = 24750 [(1 + 0.0125/1)^(1)(3)]

Type them in a calculator and get A ≈ $25,689.775

***the question says "compounded annually" so the equation for compound interest [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{t})^{n}^{t}[/tex] should be used. Your provided formula of A = P(1 + R times T) shouldn't be used here, it is for simple interest but not compound.*** (^_^)
