    Answer: the value of the investment would be $65307 in 10 years

    Explanation:

    Initial amount that Lee invested is $23000 This means that the principal is

    P = 23000

    It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. So

    n = 1

    The rate at which the principal was compounded is 11%. So

    r = 11/100 = 0.11

    The duration of the investment is 10 years, So

    t = 10

    The formula for compound interest is

    A = P (1+r/n) ^nt

    A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. Therefore

    A = 23000 (1+0.11/1) ^1*10

    A = 23000 (1.11) ^10 = $65307
