Ted is giving up an interest of 37.5 by pre-committing his money to a Christmas savings account

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine interest amount

The formula for calculating interest is as follows;

I=PRT

where;

I=interest

P=principal

R=annual interest rate

T=number of years

In our case;

P=750

R=10%=10/100=0.1

T=From June 1 to December 1=6 months=0.5 years

replacing;

I=(750×0.1×0.5)=$37.5

Step 2: Determine total amount Ted will have for the two scenarios

case 1

Christmas savings program=750

Ordinary savings account=(750+37.5)=787.5
