Hello,

I am trying to do the following problem:

Find the account balance for an account in which deposits were made every trimester growing at 2%. The first deposit was for 1000 and was made 8 years ago. The annual interest rate is 1%.

If someone could please tell me the formula I need to use it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

"trimester" is an "annoying" term; do you mean every 3 months or every 4 months?
The deposits grow at 2%? Like, 1000, then 1020, then 1040.40 ..... ?
The 1% rate is annual or per period?

If deposits "grow", then you need "increasing annuily"; see here:

Sorry about that. I meant to say every four months. The 1 % is annual. Thanks so much for the help!
