EduPlan Awesome allows him to contribute $300 into the account on the first day of every month. At the end of each month, the total in the account is increased by 0.3%. (i) Mr Lim contributes $300 on 1 January 2020 and continues to contribute $300 on the first day of each subsequent month. (a) Show that the total amount in the account at the start of the nth month ( where January 2020 was the 1st month, February 2020 was the 2nd month, and so on) is $ ( )1.003 1nA − , where A is an integer to be determined. [3] (b) Hence, find the total amount in the account at the start of 1 January 2021, giving your answer correct to 2 decimal places.

This bonus is $0.01k for the first month, and for each subsequent month, the bonus is $0.01k more than the bonus in the previous month. (ii) State the amount of bonus earned for the 20th month, giving your answer in terms of k.
