Answer:

Sandra will deposit $  18,197.75

Explanation:

It need to obtain 26,000 dollars in five years.

She will invest at 7.20 annual compounding quarterly.

We need to know to calculate the lump sum Sandra needs to deposit today.

We use present value of a lump sum formula:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $26,000

time   20 (five years x 4 quarters per year)

rate  0.018 (7.2 / 4 quarter per year)

\frac{26000}{(1 + 0.018)^{20} } = PV  

PV   18,197.75
