David saves money from his teaching job to buy a new boat when he retires in 20 years. The boat will cost $30,000. He has $12,000 in his simple interest savings account. To reach his goal by retirement, David should
move his money to a compound interest account ( T/F)

Respuesta :

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The main advantage of a compound interest account is that the interest that you earn also earns interest, so the total amount of earned interest increases.

For example, a $10,000 account earning simple interest at a 4% rate will earn $4,000 in ten years. While the same amount in a compound interest account will earn $4,802.
