Amount =$48003.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Here apply the compound interest formula;

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

where;

P=Principal amount invested = $37500

r=rate of interest as a decimal, 2.5% =0.025

n=number of compounding per year=1

t=time period the amount in invested=10

In our case, the amount after investing will be;

[tex]A=37,500(1+0.025)^{10} \\\\A=37,500(1.025)^{10} \\\\A=48003.20[/tex]

Interest earned after the period= $48003.20-$37500 =$10503.20
