Answer:
Total amount at the end of 4 years = $135.16
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple interest account pays interest on only the sum deposited at an annual rate for a specified period of time without compounding or adding the interest earned in a particular period in the calculation of interest earning for the next period. Thus, if 1000 is invested and interest s earned at 10% then the interest earned will remain constant for every period the money is still deposited in the account.
The formula to calculate interest under simple interest method is,
Interest = Principal * Annual Rate * Time in years
Total Interest earned = 109 * 6% * 4
Total interest earned = 26.16
Total amount at the end of 4 years = Principal + Interest
Total amount at the end of 4 years = 109 + 26.16
Total amount at the end of 4 years = $135.16
