Respuesta :

Given :

Reggie deposited $1,000 into an account that earns 5% compound interest monthly.

To Find :

Worth of money after 10 years.

Solution :

We know, final amount is given by :

[tex]A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Here, P = initial balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time period

Putting all given values in above equation, we get :

[tex]A=1000(1+\dfrac{0.05}{12})^{12\times 10}\\\\A =\$1647.01[/tex]

Therefore, money in his account after 10 years is $1647.01 .

Hence, this is the required solution.
