castortr0y [4]

Answer:$ 66.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using ordinary Annuity formula

$FV=\frac{P\times \left [ \left ( 1+r\right )^n-1\right ]}{r}$

FV=future value=$24000

P=monthly payment

r=rate of interest =5.4%

for monthly $r=\frac{5.4}{12}=0.45%$

n=number of payments $=9\times 12=108$

$24000=\frac{P\times \left [ \left ( 1+0.0045\right )^{108}-1\right ]}{0.0045}$

$108=P\times (1.6240)$

P=$ 66.501

sop monthly deposit of $ 66.5 is required.
