Answer:

First question : A. $ 1,082.40

Second question : B.$1,083.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the amount in the compound interest,

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where, P is the principal amount,

t is the number of years,

n is the number of compound periods in a year,

r is the rate per period,

In first question,

P = $ 1000, t = 4 years, r = 2.0 % = 0.02 and n = 1

Hence, the amount of the money left after 4 years,

[tex]A=1000(1+0.02)^4[/tex]

[tex]=\$1082.43216[/tex]

Since, 1082.40 is nearer to 1082.43216.

Therefore, Option A is the correct option.

In second question,

P = $ 1000, t = 4 years, r = 2.0 % = 0.02 and n = 2

Hence, the amount of the money left after 4 years,

[tex]A=1000(1+\frac{0.02}{4})^{16}[/tex]

[tex]=\$ 1083.07115128\approx \$1083.10[/tex]

Therefore, Option B is the correct option.
