Answer:

A. $99,195.055

B. $72,000

C. $27,195.055

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Calculation for How much will you have in the account in 30 years

Using future annuity formula

Future value=[Deposit amount* (1+Interest rate^n-1)/Interest rate]

Let plug in the formula

Where,

Deposit amount=$200

Number of days=30*12=360

Interest rate=0.02/12=0.0017

Let plug in the formula

Future value=[$200*(1+0.0017^360-1)/0.0/17]

Future value=[$200*(1+0.0017^360-1)/0.0/17]

Future value=[$200*(1.0017^360-1)/0.0/17]

Future value=$99,195.055

Therefore the amount you will have in the account in 30 years will be $99,195.055

B. Calculation for How much total money will you put into the account

Using this formula

Total money=Deposit amount*Number of days

Let plug in the formula

Total money=$200*360 days

Total money=$72,000

Therefore the total money you will put into the account is $72,000

C. Calculation for How much total interest will you earn

Total Interest=$99,195.055-$72,000

Total Interest=$27,195.055

Therefore the total Interest you will earn is $27,195.055
