Problem 5-1 Simple Interest versus Compound Interest [LO1] First City Bank pays 8 percent simple interest on its savings account balances, whereas Second City Bank pays 8 percent interest compounded annually. If you made a $68,000 deposit in each bank, how much more money would you earn from your Second City Bank account at the end of 8 years

Respuesta :

Answer:

$14,343.25

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

For the first bank

The value of investment is

= $68,000 × 8% × 8 + $68,000

= $111,520

For the second bank

= $68,000 × (1 + 0.08)^8

= $125,863.25

So, the difference in these both amount should be

= $125,863.25 - $111,520

= $14,343.25
