The formula for the accrued amount from compound interest is

1. Amount in account on 1 Jan 2015

(a) Data:

a = £23 517.60

r = 2.5 %

n = 1

t = 1 yr

(b) Calculations:  

r = 0.025

The amount that gathered interest was £22 944.00 but, before the interest started accruing, Carol had withdrawn £1000 from the account.

She must have had £23 944 in her account on 1 Jan 2015.
