The investment after 15 years by the given rate of interest will be around $632.15.
What is compound interest?
Compound interest is applicable when there will be a change in principle amount after the given time period.
For example, if you give anyone $500 at the rate of 10% annually then $500 is your principle amount. After 1 year the interest will be $50 and hence principle amount will become $550 now for the next year the interest will be $550, not $500.
Given,
Principle amount(P) = $300
Rate of interest (R) = 5%
Time period (T) = 15 years
The compound interest formula is given by
A = P[tex][ 1 + 0.0R/n]^{nT}[/tex]
So,
A = 300 [ 1 + 0.05/4] to the power of 4(15)
A = 300[1.0125]⁶⁰
A = $632.1544 ≈ $632.15.
Hence "The investment after 15 years by the given rate of interest will be around $632.15".
