To calculate the total amount in the account after 72 months, we use the formula for simple interest:
Total Amount = Principal + (Principal x Rate x Time)
Total Amount = $15,000 + ($15,000 x 0.0325 x 72)
Total Amount = $15,000 + ($15,000 x 2.325)
Total Amount = $15,000 + $34,875
Total Amount = $49,875
Therefore, the total amount in Vance's account after 72 months will be $49,875.
