Answer #1

Current value = $200

So as per question the interest rate given is converted in continuousl compounder quarter only i.e. 8%. Since nothing is mention after interest rate like p.a. or half yearly, we assume given interest rate is for a quarter only.

Hence,

Return = $200 + ($200×8%)

Return = $200 + ($200×0.08)

Return = $200+$16

Return = $216
