    The amount of money you would earn more from your second City Bank account at the end of 12 years is $5,780.68

    Explanation:

    Initial Deposit = $14,000

    Rate = 7%

    Time = 12 Years

    The formula to calculate the amount using simple interest is as follows -

    PRT/100

    Simple interest = ($14,000*0.07*12)

    = $11,760

    Total amount after 12 years = $14,000 + $11,760

    $25,760

    For Second city bank with compound interest, the future value formula will be used:

    FV = PV (1 + r) t

    where,

    PV = $14,000

    r = 7%

    t = 12 years

    FV = FV = $14,000 (1.07) 12

    FV = $14,000 * 2.25

    FV = $31,530.68

    How much more you would earn more from your second City Bank account at the end of 12 years = $31,530.68 - $25,750

    = $5,780.68
