Answer:

Amount invested that is principal amount will be $3971.137

Explanation:

We have given that Sharon Lee wants to accumulate $10000 by the end of 12 years

Future value A = $10000 after 12 years

Rate of interest is given  r = 8%

Time period n = 12 year ( which is required to accumulate the future value $10000)

We have to fond the amount invested, that is principal amount

We know that future value is given by

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n

10000=P(1+\frac{8}{100})^{12}

10000=P\times 1.08^{12}

10000=P\times 2.5181

P = $3971.137

So the amount invested that is principal amount will be $3971.137
