A man wishes to keep his money in a savings deposit at 25% compound interest so that after three years he can buy a car for N150,000. How much does he need to deposit?

A.

N112,000.50

B.

N96,000.00

C.

N85,714.28

D.

N76,800.00

Correct Answer: N76,800.00

Explanation

Amount A = P(1+r)n; A = N150,000, r = 25%, n = 3. 150,000 = P(1+0.25)3 = P(1.25)3 P = 150,000/1.253 =N76,800.00

Amount A = P(1+r)n; A = N150,000, r = 25%, n = 3. 150,000 = P(1+0.25)3 = P(1.25)3 P = 150,000/1.253 =N76,800.00
