Answer 3

Impossible to tell without knowing how much the bank in question pays on a savings account and how often interest is paid and compounded. It's very likely fluctuated a lot in the last 26 years; savings rates are on the rise again, but a few years ago they were hovering around 1%. I'd guess you have doubled your money in that time, but probably not much more than that.

That's assuming it hasn't gone dormant, been escheated to the state or been fee'd out of existence.

Answer 4

DONT ignore! expenses of interest were VERY severe contained in the early 80's. (12% plus!) i imagine an excellent thanks to seem it up will be to do one in each of numerous internet searches- 30 day CD cost heritage contained in the time-body you'll favor to seem at. you could plug this into Microsoft Excel and run the compounding extremely surely in case you or a chum knows a thanks to do it. you also would have success searching for historic mark downs account expenses over some time-body. in case you in ordinary words desire an estimate, cheat really and purely attempt to get the mandatory (or year end) interest cost for each calendar year (wont be too a ways off) good success !

Answer 5

Then it bought, what, 10 gallons of gas?
Now it might get you 3?

$4 at most

Answer 6

Assuming an interest rate of about 3%, maybe $25.

Answer 7

Somewhere around $10... Most banks don't let you start earning intrest unless you have a certain amount(usually around $500).

Answer 8

probably nothing my bank charges you if you don't have $100 in there and if you have not added any money since then my bank would have taken out more.

Answer 9

Bring it to the bank to where the money is and have them upgrade the book.

Answer 10

they may have closed your account for being inactive
