    Present value (PV) = $3,000

    Interest rate (r) = 6% = 0.06

    Number of years (n) = 2 years

    Future value (FV) = ?

    FV = PV (1 + r) n

    FV = $3,000 (1 + 0.06) 2

    FV = $3,000 (1.06) 2

    FV = $3,000 x 1.1236

    FV = $3.370.80

    Explanation:

    In this case, there is need to compound the present value for 2 years at 6% interest per annum. The formula to be applied is the formula for future value of a lump sum (single investment).
