Answer:

The annual amount necessary to meet his goal is $6,049

Explanation:

In order to calculate the the annual amount necessary to meet his goal, first we have to calculate the Inflation adjusted interest rate with the following equation:

Inflation adjusted interest rate = (1+8%)*(1+2%) - 1

Inflation adjusted interest rate = 10.16%

Therefore, to calculate the the annual amount necessary to meet his goal (P) we shall use the following formula:

$15,000 = P*(1-1/1.1016^3)/0.1016

P = $15,000/((1-1/1.1016^3)/0.1016)

P =$6,049

The annual amount necessary to meet his goal is $6,049

In this case, the overall amount of merchandise bought is recorded in the company's books. After a physical count, we'll find out that the shrinkage represents stock that is yet to be delivered.
