Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Simple interest is calculated using the formula: PRT/100

where P = principal = $1230

R = rate = 2.19%

T = time = 1 year

We then slot the values into the formula

= PRT/100

= (1230 × 2.19 × 1)/100

= 2693.7/100

= $26.937

b. Balance = Principal + Interest

= $1230 + $26.937

= $1256.937
