            Present value is P=$9000.

            Time in years is t=3,

            Rate of interest is r=4.25%.

            When the amount is compounded monthly, the compounded period is n=12.

To find: Final amount, A when compounded monthly.

Formula used for compound interest: A=P1+rnnt

where P is the principal amount.

            r is the rate of interest.

            t is the time taken.
