Question

Required: 1-a. Calculate the future value at the end of three years. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answer 1

Answer: $2,398.55

Explanation:

The deposit at the end of year one would have been compounded by 2 years at the end of year 3. The second year deposit would have compounded by 1 year and the third year deposit would not have compounded at all.

The future value at the end of 3 years is;

= (500 * ( 1 + 11%)²) + (750 * ( 1 + 11%)) + 950

= $2,398.55
