A=P(1+r/n)^nt
P=5000
R=0.10
t=5 years
A.annaully=1 time per year
A=5000(1+0.10/1)^5*1
A=5000(1+0.10)^5
A=5000(1.10)^5
A=5000(1.61051)
A=8052.55
B.semiannually=2 times per year
A=5000(1+0.10/2)^5*2
A=5000(1+0.05)^10
A=5000(1.05)^10
A=5000(1.628894627)
A=8144.47
C.quarterly=4 times per year
A=5000(1+0.10/4)^5*4
A=5000(1+0.025)^20
A=5000(1.025)^20
A=5000(1.63861644)
A=8193.08
