One bank advertises an interest rate on a certificate of deposit (CD) with a 5.6% effective annual rate. If $1000 were invested in this CD today, what would be the future value in 5 years? Report the answer to at least 4 significant figures.
Future Value
= Present Value x ( 1 + Rate of interest) ^ Number of periods
Where, Present Value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 5.6% or 0.056
Number of periods = 5 annual periods
So, Future Value
= $1,000 x ( 1.056 ^ 5)
= $1,000 x 1.313165
= $1,313.1659
