Question 5 • Economics

What is the compound interest on a three-year, 100 point 0 0 dollars loan at a 10 percent annual interest rate?

Answer
A
10 point 0 0 dollars
B
33 point 1 0 dollars
C
21 point 0 0 dollars
D
46 point 4 1 dollars

Explanation

With annual compounding, the balance after three years is $100.00 × (1.10)^3 = $133.10. Subtract the original $100.00 loan to find the compound interest: $133.10 − $100.00 = $33.10. The correct choice is $33.10.
