Compound Interest Formula:      

A: accumulated amount (final value of an investment)
P: principal (initial value of an investment)
r: annual interest rate in percentage (%)
n: number of times the interest is compounded per year
t: number of years

1.   Alex has $4864.77 in his money market account currently. If the annual interest rate os 3.9%, and the interest is compounded biweekly, how much money was in his account 2 years ago? (1 year = 52 weeks)

2.   Emily opens a savings account in a bank with the annual interest rate of 2.7%. If she deposits $6000.00 to the account, and the interest is compounded daily, how much interest will she earn after 4 years? (1 year = 365 days)

3.   Given: initial investment of $100,000 and annual compounding.  After 10 years, however, your investment was worth $250,000. Find your annualized internal rate of return.

4.   Calculate the following interest amounts:

Principle Rate(APR %) Time (years) Compounding Periods Interest Total
$500 4.5 5 Annually    
$2,500 5.6 4 *Quarterly    
$10,000 8 10 Daily    

5.   Calculate the following interest amounts:

Principle Rate(APR %) Time (years) Compounding Periods Amount Added each compounding period Interest Total
$500 4.5 5 Annually $100    
$2,500 5.6 4 *Quarterly $100    
$10,000 8 2 Daily $0    

*Quarterly = 4 times a year
