Assume you invest $2000 on February 1, 1993, $2000 on February 1, 1994, $2000 on February 1, 1995, $2000 on February 1, 1996, $2000 on February 1, 1997, $2000 on February 1, 1998, $0 on February 1, 1999, $0 on February 1, 2000, $0 on February 1, 2001, $0 on February 1, 2002, and $0 on February 1, 2003. What is the value of those investments on February 1, 2003? Assume that any money that is invested will earn an interest rate of 10%, compounded annually.
a. 15,431
b. 22,593
c. 37,062
d. 24,852
e. 49,045
d. 24,852
The final amount = Amount invested*(1+10%)^(Years for which amount invested)
Since, February 1 is the reference for all the investments, we can directly take years in between
Hence, the total amount of February 1, 2003 = $24,852
