I inherited $98,500.

b.) What is your interest rate. Choose a rate between 0.5% and 3%.

My inheritance has a 2% interest rate.

c.) Using YEARLY compounding, calculate the accrued value after 5 years, 10 years and 15 years. Show all your work. You can show work as inserted image.

Five years: $108,751.96

Ten years: $120,070.95

Fifteen years: $132,568.03

I need help writing my essay – research paper use the above classmate to complete problem:

Keeping the same principle and rate your classmate used in their initial post, you will now calculate the accrued value for a different compounding periods.

Would you predict quarterly compounding or monthly compounding to earn more interest? Explain why.
Calculate the accrued, using quarterly compounding value for 5 years, 10 years, and 15 years. Show all work.
Calculate the accrued value, using monthly compounding for 5 years, 10 years, and 15 years. Show all work.
Was your prediction in part 1 correct?
Without doing the calculation, would daily compounding accrue more interest than quarterly and monthly compounding? Explain why.
