Explanation / Answer

1)

Balance at the end of 3 years

= Principal x ( 1 + r ) ^ n

Where,

Principal = $6,400

r = Rate of interest = 12% or 0.12

n = Years = 3

So, Future value

= $6,400 x 1.12 ^ 3

= $6,400 x 1.404928

= $8,991.54

2)

Total interest

Future value - Present value

= $8,991.54 - $6,400

= $2,591.54

3)

Interest for 2016

= Future value at end of 2016 - Value at beginning of 2016

= $6,400 x 1.12 - $6,400

= $7,168 - $6,400

= $768

Interest for 2017

= Value at end of 2017 - Valie at beginning of 2017

= $6,400 x 1.12 ^ 2 - $7,168

= $8,028.16 - $7,168

= $860.16
