EXPLANATION

This is a Growth Function Model, thus we can use the following expression:

[tex]f(t)=a(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where r represents the rate, t the time and a the initial amount.

Substituting terms:

[tex]f(t)=955,000(1+0.05)^9[/tex]

Adding numbers:

[tex]f(t)=955,000\cdot1.05^9[/tex]

Computing the power:

[tex]f(t)=955,000\cdot1.5513[/tex]

Multiplying numbers:

[tex]f(t)=1481518.45[/tex]

In conclusion, the annual profit in 9 years will be of $ 1,481,518.45
