Question 1190655
Here's how to break down this compound interest problem:

**a) Future Value:**

We'll use the future value of an ordinary annuity formula:

FV = P * [((1 + r)^n - 1) / r]

Where:

* FV = Future Value (what we want to find)
* P = Periodic payment ($200)
* r = Interest rate per period (7% annual / 12 months = 0.07/12 = 0.0058333...)
* n = Number of periods (30 years * 12 months = 360)

FV = 200 * [((1 + 0.0058333)^360 - 1) / 0.0058333]
FV = 200 * [ (7.612255 -1)/0.0058333]
FV = 200 * 1133.67
FV = 226734.14

Rounded down to the cents place, you'll have approximately **$226,734.14** in the account after 30 years.

**b) Total Money Deposited:**

This is a simple multiplication:

Total Deposited = Monthly Deposit * Number of Months
Total Deposited = $200 * 360
Total Deposited = **$72,000**

**c) Total Interest Earned:**

Total Interest = Future Value - Total Deposited
Total Interest = $226,734.14 - $72,000
Total Interest = **$154,734.14**
