Given:
Principal = 1,500
term = 2 years
interest rate = 3.7% per annum
Simple Interest = Principal interest rate term
S.I = 1,500 0.037 2
S.I = 111
Total value = 1,500 + 111 = 1,611
Compound interest
A = P (1+r/n)^nt
where n is the number of times interest is compounded. Assuming interest is only compounded once.
A = 1,500(1+0.037/1)^1*2
A = 1,500(1.037)²
A = 1,500(1.075369)
A = 1,613.0535
