Answer
Interest: $-670.18, Total: $-1,670.18

To calculate compound interest on $-1,000.00 at -5.0% for -10.0 years (compounded annually), follow the step-by-step solution below.

Step 1 — Write the formula

A = P × (1 + r/n)n×t

Step 2 — Identify the values

P = $-1,000.00 (principal), r = -5.0% = -0.05 (annual rate), n = 1 (compounds per year), t = -10.0 (years)

Step 3 — Substitute and calculate

A = -1,000.00 × (1 + -0.051)1 × -10.0

= -1,000.00 × (0.950000)-10

= -1,000.00 × 1.670183

= $-1,670.18

Step 4 — Find the interest earned

Interest = A − P = -1,670.18 − -1,000.00 = $-670.18

Interest: $-670.18 | Total: $-1,670.18
