March 1st, 2015 to September 1st, 2017 = 3 months = 2.5 years

Answer: $2,919.38

(I = A - P = $219.38)

Equation:

A = P (1 + rt)

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3.25%/100 = 0.0325 per year.

Solving our equation:

A = 2700 (1 + (0.0325 * 2.5)) = 2919.375

A = $2,919.38

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $2,700.00 at a rate of 3.25% per year for 2.5 years is $2,919.38.
