Solution

Sure, let's break it down step by step:

  1. Initial Amount (Principal): $1000
  2. Interest Rate: 20% per year
  3. Compounding Frequency: Once per year

The formula for compound interest is: A=P(1+rn)nt A = P \left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

Where:

  • A A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
  • P P is the principal amount (the initial amount of money).
  • r r is the annual interest rate (decimal).
  • n n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.
  • t t is the time the money is invested for in years.

Given the values:

  • P=1000 P = 1000
  • r=0.20 r = 0.20 (20% as a decimal)
  • n=1 n = 1 (compounded once per year)
  • t=1 t = 1 year

Plug these values into the formula: A=1000(1+0.201)1×1 A = 1000 \left(1 + \frac{0.20}{1}\right)^{1 \times 1} A=1000(1+0.20) A = 1000 \left(1 + 0.20\right) A=1000(1.20) A = 1000 \left(1.20\right) A=1200 A = 1200

So, at the end of the year, you will have $1200.
