    Compound interest formula

    A = P (1+r/n) ^ (nt)

    annually:

    quarterly:

    A = 22,000 (1 + 0.0525/1) ^10 = 36,698.11

    quarterly:

    A = 22,000 (1 + 0.0525/4) ^ (4*10) = 37,063.29

    37,063.29 - 36,698.11 = 365.18

    answer: compound interest quarterly earned $365.18 more than annually
