The amount after 5 years is $ 950.15

Explanation:

Given,

Principle (P) = $ 800

Time (T) = 5 years

Rate of interest (R) = 3.5%

To find the amount after 5 years.

Formula

The amount after T years compounded annually is A = P
(1+(R)/(100) )^(T)

Now,

Putting the values of P, T, R we get,

A = $ 800
(1+(3.5)/(100) )^(5)

= $ 950.15 (approx)
