Answer :

The amount when 500 invested at 9% interest compounded monthly be worth after 4 years will be $715.7.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is the interest on a loan or deposit calculated based on the initial principal and the accumulated interest from the previous period.

We know that the compound interest is given as

[tex]\rm A = P \left ( 1 + \dfrac{r}{n} \right ) ^{nt}[/tex]

Where A is the amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of interest, and t is the number of years.

For interest compounded monthly, the value of n is 12.

The amount when 500 invested at 9% interest compounded monthly be worth after 4 years will be

[tex]\rm A = 500 \left ( 1 + \dfrac{0.09}{12} \right ) ^{12 \times 4}[/tex]

Simplify the equation, then we have

A = 500 (1.0075)⁴⁸

A = 500 x 1.4314

A = $715.70

The amount when 500 invested at 9% interest compounded monthly be worth after 4 years will be $715.7.
