Solution

To solve this problem, we will use the formula for compound interest:

A(t) = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

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

Given in the problem: P = $120 r = 6% or 0.06 (in decimal form) n = 12 (since the interest is compounded monthly) t = 21 years

Substitute these values into the formula:

A(t) = 120(1 + 0.06/12)^(12*21)

Now, calculate the expression inside the parentheses:

1 + 0.06/12 = 1.005

So, the equation becomes:

A(t) = 120 * (1.005)^(12*21)

Now, calculate the exponent:

12*21 = 252

So, the equation becomes:

A(t) = 120 * (1.005)^252

Now, calculate the value of A(t):

A(t) โ‰ˆ $421.72

So, the amount of 120investedat6120 invested at 6% interest compounded monthly would be worth approximately 421.72 after 21 years. Therefore, the answer is A.$421.72.
