Answer:

$7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the early withdrawal fee on this account is shown below:

= CD buying price × annual percentage rate × number of months for withdrawal fee

= $750 × 4% × 3 months ÷ 12 months

= $7.5

Simply we multiplied the buying price of CD with the annual percentage rate and the number of given months for withdrawal fee so that the exact fee amount can come.
