Annual Compound Interest Formula:
A=P%281%2Br%2Fn%29%5Ent
Where:
P = principal amount (the initial amount you borrow or deposit)
r = annual rate of interest (as a decimal)
t = number of years the amount is deposited or borrowed for.
A = amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
n = number of times the interest is compounded per year
A=900%281%2B0.075%29%5E7
A=900%281.075%29%5E7
A=1493.14
You would have $1493.14.
If you choose to do it with out the general formula, you can multiply 900 buy 1.075 then take the result and multiply by 1.075 again. Doing this 7 times will result in the same answer.
