Tina, the owner of a home and garden store, lends $8,000 to lana to her open an art shop. lana plans to repay tina at the end of eight years with interest compounded semiannually at 8%. using the tables found in the textbook, you can determine that at the end of eight years, tina will receive a. $14,484. b. $14,984. c. $16,587. d. $16,857.

  B.  $14,984

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier is ...

  (1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . . where r is the nominal annual rate, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years.

Here, that multiplier is ...

  (1 +.08/2)^(2·8) = 1.04^16 ≈ 1.87298

Then Lana will be paying Tina ...

  $8000×1.87298 ≈ $14984

at the end of 8 years.
