The total amount after 2 years of Joann's investment at a rate of 6% compounded annually is US$ 48.314.80 (rounded to the nearest cent)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for answering the question:

Investment amount = US$ 43,000

Duration of the investment = 2 years

Annual interest rate = 6% compounded annually

2. Let's find the future value of this investment after 2 years, using the following formula:

FV = PV * (1 + r) ⁿ

PV = Investment = US$ 43,000

number of periods (n) = 2 (2 years compounded annually)

rate (r) = 6% = 0.06

Replacing with the real values, we have:

FV = 43,000 * (1 + 0.06) ²

FV = 43,000 * (1.06) ²

FV = 43,000 * 1.1236

FV = US$ 48.314.80
