Today you invested $21400 in an investment that pays 5% and will mature in 3 years. Once the investment matures, you will invest your funds for another 6 years in another investment that pays 3%. What will be the value of your investment after 9 years?
initial investment = I = $21400, Rate of interest for first investment of 3 years = R1 = 5%
Amount accumulated after 3 years in first investment = A = I (1 + R1)3 = 21400 (1 + 5%)3 = 21400 x (1.05)3 = 21400 x 1.157625 = 24773.175 = 24773.18 (rounded to two decimal places)
Rate of interest of second investment for next 6 years = R2 = 3%
Value of investment after 9 years = A (1 + R2)6 = 24773.18 (1 + 3%)6 = 24773.18 (1.03)6 = 24773.18 x 1.1940522 = 29580.47
Hence Value of investment after 9 years = 29580.47
