No. The more often it's compounded, the more interest you receive,and the faster your investment grows.
After 1 year, you would have 2,500 * 1.03 = 2,575. After the 2nd year you would have 2,575 * 1.03 = 2,652.25. After the 3rd year you would have 2,652.25 * 1.03 = 2731.8175 or rounded to $2,731.82. The formula for this is FV = PV * (1+i)^n, where FV = future value, PV = present value, i = interest rate per compounding period, and n = number of periods.
For compound interest F = P*(1 + i)^n. Where P is the Present Value, i is the interest rate per compounding period, and n is the number of periods, and F is the Future Value.F = (9000)*(1 + .08)^5 = 13223.95 and the amount of interest earned is 13223.95 - 9000 = 4223.95
Divide by the number of hours per year that you claim to work for.
It depends on the number of hours worked in a year!
