\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}\\ A=P\left(1+(r)/(n)\right)^(nt) \qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{current amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$2,300\\ r=rate\to 13\%\to (13)/(100)\to &0.013\\ n=\textit{times it compounds per year}\to &1\\ t=years\to &1 \end{cases}

A is amount accrued in one year
to get the interest earned, simply subtract the Principal from the
amount A
