FV=P{[1 + R]^N - 1/ R}

FV =$290,818.71

FV=P{[1 + R]^N - 1/ R}

FV =1,000 x [1 + 0.06/12]^(15*12)

FV =1,000 x 1.005^180 - 1 / 0.06/12}

FV =1,000 x   2.45409356.. - 1 / 0.005

FV =1,000 x             290.81871244944262756649261253386

FV =$290,818.71 - This is the accurate calculation. Show it to your teacher.

$290,818.71 - [$1,000 x 180] =$110,818.71 - This is the interest earned over 15 years.
