i think it 5400.00
You want to calculate the interest on $12000 at 15% interest per year after 3 year(s). The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or: Where: P is the principal amount, $12000.00. r is the interest rate, 15% per year, or in decimal form, 15/100=0.15. t is the time involved, 3....year(s) time periods. So, t is 3....year time periods. To find the simple interest, we multiply 12000 × 0.15 × 3 to get that: The interest is: $5400.00 Usually now, the interest is added onto the principal to figure some new amount after 3 year(s), or 12000.00 + 5400.00 = 17400.00. For example: If you borrowed the $12000.00, you would now owe $17400.00 If you loaned someone $12000.00, you would now be due $17400.00 If owned something, like a $12000.00 bond, it would be worth $17400.00 now.
