Write a Story for Kumquat

When I was a kid, growing up on Friends Ave, I absolutely loved kumquats. We didn't have a tree, but there was a family a few streets down that did and I was brave enough to go and knock on their door and ask if we could pick some. They are quite tart and borderline sour, but wonderfully delicious. The skin is mild, which perfectly compliments the inside. I see them at the markets here, but I never buy them because they are a bit expensive and besides, it's much more thrilling when you can pick them yourself. Several months ago I started working for a wonderful family in Beverly Hills as a personal assistant one day a week. While I was up there yesterday, we went out walking in the backyard and there I saw the sweetest little kumquat tree. Now, I had heard about the kumquats before from one of the housekeepers who I once saw making some delightful kumquat-ginger jam. She even gave me a little spoonful to try, which was amazing. I was told I was more than welcome to pick some for myself. You mean it? I get to pick my very own?? So I did. Twenty-plus years later, I finally got to pick my very own kumquats again. It was such a thrill. I eat them whole and have been snacking on them for 2 days. They also had some loquat trees which I had never heard off before, but I picked one or two of those and I'm still undecdided on whether or not I like them. The texture reminds me a lot of an apricot, but with 2-3 medium sized seeds in the middle. I picked a few limes and two pumellos and love having all this fruit around.

Explanation:

The future value of an investment is its worth at a future date if the investment is done at a specific interest rate compounded yearly for certain number of years

It is computed as follows:

FV = PV (1+r)^n

FV = Future Value, PV = present value, r- interest rate, n- number of years

Future value of $7500 after 3 years:

FV = 7500× (1.08)^3 = 9,447.84

Future Value of $9000 after 2 years:

FV = 9000 × (1.08^2) = $10,497.6

Future value of $12,500 after 1 year:

FV = 12500× 1.08 = $13,500

The future value of these cashflows at the end of year 5

= 9,447.8 + 10,497.6 + 13,500

= $33,445.44
