Answer:
$256.31
Explanation:
Interest rate per annum = 3.6%
Number of years = 4.5
No of payment per annum = 12
Interest rate per period 3.6%/12 = 0.3%
Number of period = 4.5*12 = 54
FV of annuity = 15,000
Deposit in each month (P) = FVA / ([1+r)^n - 1]/r)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1+0.3%]^54 - 1) / 0.3%)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1.003^54 - 1]/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (1.175575 - 1/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (0.175575/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / 58.525
Deposit in each month (P) = 256.3007262
Deposit in each month (P) = $256.31
