The same as 2% per year. Per annum means per year.
It will grow to nine eighths of the original sum.

120 x (1.0621). You need a calculator with logarithms to solve this quickly. Take the log of 1.06, multiply that by 21 then take the antilog. The answer should be close to 3.4 I have 3.995636 which would give 407.95 to the nearest cent. Later: Sorry, this is based on annual compounding. For monthly the equation is 120 x (1.005252). You're on your own, I'm afraid! * * * * * The second part of the above answer is correct if this is purely a mathematical exercise. However, 6% compounded monthly is an annual interest rate of approx 101.2%. If you know anyone who gives even a tenth of that rate I would be interested to know! What happens, in real life, is that the financial company advertises the annual equivalent rate of their monthly rate. So, a 6% rate, compounded monthly, is really 0.487% monthly. This is because 0.487% compounded 12 times is 1.0048712 = 1.06, or 6% per annum. Then the real life problem reduces to 6% per annum for 21 years, which is 120*(1.06)21 = 407.95 - as in part 1 of the above answer. * * * * * The last paragraph above is incorrect. As was stated in the first answer, that would be for annual compounding. To calculate 6% per annum (which is what we usually mean by interest rates) compounded monthly, you first convert the interest rate to a monthly rate by dividing by 12, and that of course is half a percent per month, so every month the balance is multiplied by 1.005. So the answer of 120 x (1.005252) given there is correct. On the scientific calculator on my computer, I get $421.72.
After 5 years, 20000 at 7% per annum compounded semiannually will be 20000*(1 + 0.5*7/100)2*5 = 20000*(1.035)10 = 28211.98
0.9938% per month, when compounded is equivalent to 12.6% annually.
If it is simple interest, then it is 2700. ■
P.C.P.A. stands for Percent Compounded Per Annum.
It means the percent of interest paid annually (p.a. means per annum).

P.C.P.A. is the "Percent Compounded Per Annum." This measurement is used when trying to determine the compound interest for previous years.
