The South bank pays 5

Finance Jan 17, 2021

The South bank pays 5.60%, compounded daily (based on 360 days), on a 9-month certificate of deposit. If you deposit $20,000 you would expect to earn around in interest.

Expert Solution

As the interest is compounded daily, the interest
rate per day in decimals = 0.056/360 and the
number of days compounded will be 30*9 = 270
days.
Therefore, the total amount, including interest, after 9 months = $20,000*(1+0.056/360)^270 =	$ 20,857.82
Amount earned as interest = $20,857.82-$20,000 =	$ 857.82
