Claire wants to take out a small personal loan to renovate her kitchen. She borrows $3,000. Her loan has an annual compound interest rate of 15%. The loan compounds once each year. When you calculate Claire’s debt, be sure to use the formula for annual compound interest. A = P (1+)nt If Claire does not make any payments, how much will she owe after ten years?

$12,136.67
$3,481.24
$6,090.90
$3,232.74

Answer 1

Answer 2

The correct answer is A.

The formula for the annual compound interest rate gives the value requested, taking into account that each unknown included stands for the following variables:

• P = principal or total amount borrowed =3000
• n = interest rate applied = 15%
• t= nº of periods = 10

Therefore, A= 3000 (1+0.15)^10 = $12,136.67
