Firdavs [7]

Answer:

FV= $94,108.42

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the future value of the 12 annual deposits:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {3,500*[(1.06^12) - 1]} / 0.06

FV= $59,044.79

<u>Now, the future value at the end of the 20 years (8 years more):</u>

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

FV= 59,044.79*(1.06^8)

FV= $94,108.42
