P=Po(1+r)^n. Calculate int. for 1 year.
r = (5%/12)/100% = 0.00417 = Monthly %
rate expressed as a decimal.
n = 12comp./yr. * 1yr. = 12 Compounding
periods.
P = 7000(1.00417)^12 = $7358.13
I = P-Po = 7358.13 - 7000 = $358.13
APY = (I/Po)*100% = (358.13/7000)*100% = 5.116%
r = (5%/12)/100% = 0.00417 = Monthly %
rate expressed as a decimal.
n = 12comp./yr. * 1yr. = 12 Compounding
periods.
P = 7000(1.00417)^12 = $7358.13
I = P-Po = 7358.13 - 7000 = $358.13
APY = (I/Po)*100% = (358.13/7000)*100% = 5.116%
