The monthly interest rate is 1%

Fv = pv ((1+r)n-1)/r

Fv = 2,000[(1+0.1)240-1]/0.1

=N1,978,510.73

cool r = 0.01 NOT 0.1 cool

12 percent annual interest on ur savings of 2000 monthly. days 24,000 monthly. 12 percent of 24000 is 2880. so u shed get 2880 with of interest every year x 20 years is 57,600.

This is not simple interest you learnt in JSS classes, this is maths of finance (applied)
mr man, he's correct, 2000 each month, that is 12*2000=24,000. For 20yrs 24,000x20=480,000, 12percent of 480,000 is 57600, so the total money the person wld receive for saving with the bank is 480,000+57600=537600

You can see the power compounding, N2,000 savings every month with assumed interest rate of 12% will fetch you N1,978,510.72k in the next twenty years.

Years
1 = 2000 × 12 = 24000 + 12% interest rate which is 2400 that is = 26400

Year 2
Account balance is 26400, so + the 2000 × 12 which is 24000, now this is the trick, you + the balance of last year with this year which is 26400 + 24000 = 50400, now you add the 12% interest rate. The 12%interest rate of 50400 is = 5033.3 so we add both which is 50400 + 5033.3 = 55433.3

You do that continuesly to the 20years and you get the answer.

I can solve d question but I won't bother Sha cos it won't add any value to me to do dat. But I can give other willing pple d necessary pointers.

Ordinarily u can solve d question using simple annuity but then given that the deposit is done monthly, it becomes a bit more complex for those who do not fully grasp d concept of simple annuity. So, to solve d question in such a way that the layman will understand, simple model it in Microsoft excel. U shud get the answer in exactly 2 mins if u understand excel very well

Even if is 1,000 years, then it will take you a lifetime to get the answer.

Savings for a yr = 2000 * 12 = 24000 ; earnings for the yr 24000 * 0.12= 2880 + 24000 = 26,880
Total earnings = 26,880 * 12 = NGN322,660
