Answer:

maturity value = 31068.51

so correct option is d. $31,068.51

Explanation:

given data

amount = $30000

rate = 5.25 % = [tex]\frac{0.0525}{360}[/tex]

time = 8 month = 8 × 30 = 240 days

solution

we know here common to assume 360 days in a year

when working with simple  interest

The maturity value is

maturity value = [tex]amount( 1+ rate )^t[/tex]     .............1

put here value

maturity value = [tex]30000 ( 1+ \frac{0.0525}{360} )^240[/tex]  

maturity value = 31068.51

so correct option is d. $31,068.51
