Diana can either invest 20000 dollars for 4 years with a simple interest rate of 6% or an interest rate of 7% which compounds quarterly. How many more dollars, rounded to the nearest dollar, would she get with the better interest rate than with the worse one?

6%     money to be made       2000 (.06)(4) = 480 dollars

 

 

7%                                           2000(1 + .07/4)16 - 2000 = 639.86 dollars

                                                       interst rate per PERIOD = .07/4     periods = quarterly for 4 years = 16
