Answer:

e. $82,854

Explanation:

Assuming compounding occurs only once a year, the future value of a $39,500 investment for 30 years at a rate of 2.50% per year is determined by:

[tex]FV = P*(1+r)^n\\FV = \$39,500*(1+0.025)^{30}\\FV=\$82,854[/tex]

At the end of 30 years, Brandon will have $82,854.

The answer is alternative e. $82,854
