Answer:
FV = $9745.02838 rounded off to $9745.03
Explanation:
To calculate the amount of money in account after five years, we will use the formula for future value of cash flow. The formula is as follows,
FV = Present value * (1+i)^t
Where,
- i is the annual interest rate
- t is the time in years
As we have annual interest rate of 8.1% but it is compounded daily, we will use 8.1%/365 in our formula to get daily rates. Move over as the compounding is done daily, we will take 365*5 days instead of 5 years.
So,
FV = 6500 * [1+(8.1%/365)]^(5*365)
FV = $9745.02838 rounded off to $9745.03
