2. You invest $\$ 15000$ at $3 \%$ per annum, simple interest. After 4 years, what is the amount in your account?
\(\boxed{A = 16800}\)
Step 1 :Calculate the simple interest using the formula: \(I = P * R * T\)
Step 2 :\(I = 15000 * 0.03 * 4\)
Step 3 :\(I = 1800\)
Step 4 :Add the interest to the principal amount to find the final amount: \(A = P + I\)
Step 5 :\(A = 15000 + 1800\)
Step 6 :\(\boxed{A = 16800}\)
