Answer:

$2125 interest accumulated at the end of 10 years .

Explanation:

Formula


Simple\ inerest = (Principle* Rate* Time)/(100)

As given

An investor puts $2,500 into a life insurance policy that pays 8.5% simple annual interest.

Principle = $2500

Rate = 8.5 %

Time = 10 years

Putting all the values in the formula


Simple\ inerest = (2500* 8.5* 10)/(100)


Simple\ inerest = 25* 8.5* 10

Simple interest = $ 2125

Therefore the $2125 interest accumulated at the end of 10 years .
