If you put $ 6,000 in a savings account that pays interest at the rate of 4 percent, compounded annually, how much will you have in five years?
A(5) = 6000(1+0.04)^(5)
---------------------
A(5) = 6000*1.04^5 = $7299.92
-----------------------------------
How much interest will you earn during the five years?
Ans:: Interest = 7299.92-6000 = $3299.92
