What is the difference in future value if $20,000 is invested at 5% over ten years, with one option compounding interest semi-annually, while the other is based on quarterly compounding? If $10,000 was invested at 4% over ten years, determine the difference if this investment was based on simple interest versus interest that was compounded annually.
