Determine: a) the value of the investment after 18 years  Value of investment after 1 year: A = R1500 + 18% of R1500 b) the simple interest earned after 18 years

= R1500 + R270 P = R50 000 ; I = 0.16 p.a ; n = 18 years = R1770

 a) A = P(1 + i.n)  Value of investment after 2 years: A = R50 000 (1 + 0,16.18) A = R1770 + 18% of R1500 A = R194 000 = R1770 + R270 = R2040  b) Interest received Therefore value of interest remains constant. = A - P = R194 000 – R50 000  Using the Simple Interest formula: = R144 000. A = P(1 + i.n) A = R1500(1 + 0,18 x 2) A = R2040 3 4
