Explanation / Answer

Solution A: $11,025

Money in bank= $10,000

Interest rate = 5% compounded annually

No. of Years =2

Future value of $1 at 5% compounded annually= 1.1025

Future value of $10,000 at 5% compounded annually after 2 years= $10,000 * 1.1025 = $11,025

Solution B: $12,762.82

Money in bank= $10,000

Interest rate = 5% compounded annually

No. of Years =5

Future value of $1 at 5% compounded annually after 5 years= 1.2762815

Future value of $10,000 at 5% compounded annually= $10,000 * 1.2762815= $12,762.82

Solution C: $17,908.48 (Option 4)

Monthly deposit in bank= $1,000

Interest rate = 6% compounded annually

No. of Years =10

Amount is $13,181

Working Note:

- Amount deposit at Year 1 end will attract interest for 9 years.

- Amount deposited at year 10 end will not attract any interest income since we are calculating the total money after 10 years.
