Answer:

The balance of the savings account after all the interest is paid for the year​ is $3,844.30

Explanation:

In the question we have been given the Annual percentage yield as 3.9% , the principal as 3,700 and the time to be 1 year and asked to determine the accumulated amount in the savings account at the end of the year.

The accumulated amount can be determined using the compound interest formula;


A=p(1+r)^(n) \\A = 3700(1+(3.9)/(100))^(1)\\ A=3844.30

Therefore, the balance of the savings account after all the interest is paid for the year​ is $3,844.30
