$1000 is deposited in a savings account that is compounded annually at 6%. The balance, A, in the account after t years is
A(t) = 1000(1+(.06))^(t)
Find the balance after 1 year, 10 years, and 20 years.
---------
One year:
A(1)= 1000(1+0.06/1)^(1*1)
A(1)=1000*1.06
A(1)= $1060.00
--------------------
Ten years:
A(10)= 1000(1.06)^10 = 1000*1.79085= $1790.85
-----------------
A(20) = 1000(1.06)^20 = 1000*3.20714 = $3207.14
