Step-by-step explanation:

write what you know

P = 1,000

n = 5 years

Plan 1

i = 0.04 / 2 months = (0.04 / 2 months) x (12 months / year) = 24%

write and solve

future value = p(1+i)^n = 1000(1+0.24)^5

plan 2

i = 0.10 / 6 months = (0.10 / 6 months) x (12 months / year) = 20%

write and solve

future value = p(1+i)^n = 1000(1+0.20)^5
