Answer:
Missing word <em>"You are now 18 years old and are allowed to withdraw the money for the first time. The account currently has $3996 in it and pays an 8% interest rate."</em>
a.  At 18 years, future value of current amount (compounded for another 7 years at 8%)
= $3,996 * (1.08)^7
= $3,996 * 1.7138
= $6,848.34
b. At age 65, future value of this amount (compounded for another 40 years at 8%)
= $6,848.44 * (1.08)^40
= $6,848.44 * 21.7245
= $148,779.93
c. Future Value = Present Value * (1 + Interest Rate)^n
So, let initial the money deposited be represented by Y
=> $3,996 = Y * (1.08)^18
=> $3,996 = Y * 3.996
Y = $3,996 / 3.996
Y = $1,000

Here, Brandi is confused as she feels it was not appropriate of her supervisor to talk to a prospect's secretary. However, she did not know that her supervisor chatted with the secretary in a friendly manner as secretaries spend most of their time with the boss and is well aware of his requirements. So, supervisor will be able to seek important information from her about the prospect that would help him convert it to sales.
