    The correct answer is D.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Mira has saved $25,000 over the years and she has the option of investing it in either of the two investment plans. Investment A offers 12 percent interest compounded monthly, whereas Investment B pays 13 percent interest compounded semiannually.

    Investment A:

    PV = 25,000

    n = 7*12 = 84

    i=1% monthly

    FV = PV * (1+i) ^n

    FV = 25,000*1.01^84 = $57,668.07

    Investment B:

    PV = 25,000

    n = 14

    i = 6.5% semianually

    FV = 25,000*1.065^14 = $60,371.86

    The difference is $2,703.79
