Sounds like homework so I'll provide a couple hints: Functions available in data step coding: SAVING

 

Note that many of the finance functions have 3, 4 or more parameters. The answer depends on which one you leave as missing.

 

Express interest as decimals: 0.05 instead of 5%, and pay attention to compounding intervals.

is this the correct way to solve 1 st one

data work.invest;

do month=1 to 15;

Capital+5000;

capital+(capital*.10);

output;

end;

run;

 

2. data work.invest;

amount=500000;

rate=0.07;

do month =1 to 25 ;

earned+5000;

output;

end;

run;

title 'output dataset :Compounded monthly';

run;

proc print data=work.invest;

title 'output dataset :Compound Monthly';

run;

/* Compounded ANNUALLY */

data work.invest;

amount=500000;

rate=0.07;

do year =1 to 25;

earned+5000;

earned+(amount+earned)*rate;

output;

end;

run;

title 'output dataset :Compounded annually';

run;

proc print data=work.invest;

title 'output dataset :Compound annually';

run;

That's your homework. What's your question for us?

Note: that it's less likely to get an answer to homework style questions without showing any effort.
