Simple Interest(a) Suppose an amount P is invested at a simple annual interest rate of R% for tyears, yielding a final amount A.

How many full years will it take for you to have more than$20,000?45. Annuities(a) You invest $200 at the beginning of each month at an annual interest rate of 7%compounded monthly, for a period of 2 years. Explain why the amount of moneyyou will have at the end equals2001 +0.071224+ 2001 +0.071223+ 2001 +0.071222+ · · · +2001 +0.07123+ 2001 +0.07122+ 2001 +0.07121.(b) Suppose S = Aq + Aq2+ Aq3+ · · · + Aqm. Show how to get the formulaS = Aq qm− 1q − 1!(assuming q 6= 1).(c) Suppose you invest $200 at the beginning of each month at an annual interestrate of 7% compounded monthly for a period of 30 years. How much money willyou have in the end?(d) Suppose you wish to become a millionaire 40 years from now by making a monthlyinve stment of an amount A at the beginning of each month at an annual interestrate of 7% compounded monthly.
