Answer:
a) $101354
Explanation:
To calculate the future balance of the interest-earning account use following formula
FV = PV x ( 1 + r )^n
Where
FV = Future value = Balance of Interest-earning account after 3 years = ?
PV = present value = Amounr deposited in the account = $90,000
r = Periodic interest rate = 4% x 6/12 = 2%
n = Numbers of periods = Numbers of years x Compounding periods per year = 3 years x 2 periods per year = 6 periods
Placing values in the formula
FV = $90,000 x ( 1 + 2% )^6
FV = $101,354
