Answer:

The value of money factor (future value of a lump sum for three year at 10% interest rate) is 1.331

we will return the principal and 33.1% of the principal as interest

Explanation:

we have to calcualte the FV of a principal of $1 after 3 year exposed to 10% interest rate:

[tex]1(1+r)^n=FV\\(1+0.1)^3=FV\\factor = 1.331[/tex]
