What is compound interest?

Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on principal plus interest.

Given

Let A be the final amount.

Principal = $2000

r = rate = 5%

n = number of compounding in a year = 4

t = number of years the principal will be compounded = 30

The formula for compound interest:

[tex]A=(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

A = [tex]2000(1+\frac{0.05}{4} )^{4\times30}[/tex]

A = [tex]2000(1+0.0125 )^{120}[/tex]

[tex]A=2000\times4.440[/tex]

A = $8,880.43

I have $8,880.43  in the account in 30 years.
