Here's how to calculate the simple interest:
* **Principal:** $2,159.00
* **Rate:** 3.9% = 0.039 (in decimal form)
* **Time:** 6 years
Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time
Simple Interest = $2,159.00 * 0.039 * 6
Simple Interest = $505.206
Rounding to the nearest cent, the simple interest is $505.21.
