    Annual compound interest formula

    The formula for annual compound interest is A = P (1 + r/n) ^ nt:

    Where:

    A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest

    P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)

    r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

    n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year

    t = the number of years the money is invested or borrowed for

    Regency Bank

    P = 6700. r = 9/100 = 0.09 (decimal). n = 1. t = 16.

    A = 6700 (1 + 0.09 / 1) ^ 1 (16) = 26,601.05

    So, the investment balance after 16 years is $26,601.05.

    King Bank

    P = 6700. r = 9/100 = 0.09 (decimal). n = 12. t = 16.

    A = 6700 (1 + 0.0075 / 12) ^ 12 (16) = 28,127.12

    So, the investment balance after 16 years is $ 28,127.12
