    The future worth of money that is invested currently can be calcualted through the equation,

    F = P x (1 + i) ^n

    where F is the future worth, P is the present worth, i is the interest, and n is the number of years.

    a. F = (5,000) (1 + 0.09) ^2 = $5,940.5

    b. F = (5,000) (1 + 0.06) ^3 = $5,955.08

    c. F = (5,000) (1 + 0.03) ^6 = $5,970.26

    Hence, the answer to this item is letter C.
