Answer:

You have to invest $5,020.71  to have $6,000 in 4 years 3 months at 4 1\5% annual interest, compounded monthly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the principal be x

Amount = $6000

Time = 4 years 3 months = [tex]4 years +\frac{3}{12} years = 4.25 years[/tex]

Rate of interest = [tex]4 \frac{1}{5}\% = \frac{21}{5}\%[/tex]

No. of compounds per year = 12

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

[tex]6000=P(1+\frac{21}{500 \times 12})^{12 \times 4.25}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6000}{(1+\frac{21}{500 \times 12})^{12 \times 4.25}}[/tex]=P

P=$5,020.71

Hence You have to invest $5,020.71  to have $6,000 in 4 years 3 months at 4 1\5% annual interest, compounded monthly.
