Programming Assignment 5 - Investment Maturity Value

Due Wednesday, June 30

This is basically program 3 on page 219-220 of your textbook. Write a C++ program to calculate and print the value of an investment at maturity. The program should read the investment amount (principal) and the investment period from the keyboard and print a table of maturity values for interest rates of 4%, 5%, 6%, and 7%. See your textbook for the formula.

Notes:

  1. You must do all input and output in the main function.
  2. You must use a loop in the main function.
  3. The formula should be calculated in a separate function.
