Answer:

Given that,

An amount of $23,000 is borrowed for 11 years at 6.75% interest, compounded annually.

To find the Amount paid back after 11 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that,

The formula to find the,

Amount after n years of interest rate r% compounded annually is,


A=P(1+(r)/(100))^n

where P is the initial amount.

Here, we have that,

P=$23,000

r=6.75

n=11

Substitute the values we get,


A=23000(1+(6.75)/(100))^(11)

Solving this we get,


A=23000(1+0.0675)^(11)
A=23000(1.0675)^(11)
A=23000(2.05138)
A=47181.805

Round to the nearest dollar.


A=47181.805\approx47182

Answer is: Amount paid back is $47182 after 11 years
