Answer:

Amount =$48003.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Here apply the compound interest formula;

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

where;

P = Principal amount invested = $37500

r = rate of interest as a decimal, 2.5% =0.025

n = number of compounding per year=1

t = time period the amount in invested=10

In our case, the amount after investing will be:-

[tex]A=37,500(1+0.025)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]A=37,500(1.025)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]A=48003.20[/tex]

Interest earned after the period:

= $48003.20 - $37500 = $10503.20

I hope this helps....
