Question

Total amount = P (1 + i)t Ryan has an eight–year loan for $6,000. He is being charged an interest rate of 5 percent, compounded annually. Calculate the total amount that he will pay. A. $7,657.69 B. $8,815.97 C. $8,864.73

Answer 1

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Total amount =
`P(1+i)^t`

Number of years = 8

Loan amount = $ 6000

Rate of interest = 5%

So, Total amount is given by

`6000(1+0.05)^8\\\\=6000(1.05)^8\\\\=\$8864.73`

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.
