Given:

Principal amount ( P ) = $50

Interest rate ( r ) = 5% or 0.05 (divided by 100)

Term ( t ) = 1/12

Find the amount of Money that Jody will Pay Tong

Formula for Simple Interest

A = P ( 1 + rt ) 

A = Future Value

Solution:

Substitute the given values of r,t and P to the formula for simple interest.

A = P ( 1 + rt ) 

A = $50 ( 1 + (0.05)(1/12))

A = $50 ( 1.004166667 )

A = $50.21

Final answer:

Jody will Pay Tong $50.21.
