After opening her own computer and web-design business, Jessica Hernandez checked into selling Apple's popular iPhones. But she was not able to sell them since Apple allowed only a few large companies to sell them. So, Hernandez focused on computer training classes as she built her reputation designing Web pages for small firms. She knew that she needed to borrow some money as her business grew and wondered how to go about it.
Once Hernandez's uncle agreed to cosign on a loan, Union Bank offered to lend Hernandez $85,000 at 10.5% simple interest. Find the interest and maturity value. _____________
