b.
$50,086.13
c.
$52,840.86
d.
$55,747.11

Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial goal of his profit he expect = $45000

Rate of growth = 5.5% each year for the next 3 years.

We need to find the profit Sam expected to make in his third year of business.

that means, Number of years completed = 2

So, we will use "Compound interest ":

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
