Answer:
$1, 727.68
Explanation:
Cheryl wants to have $2000 three years from now in an account that pays 5%
The $2000 is equivalent to the Future value when applying the compound interest formula. The present value is the amount she needs to invest now.
Fv= PV (1+5/100)^3
$2000 = PV(1+0.05)^3
$2000 =Pv 1.157625
Pv = $2000/1.157625
Pv= 1,727.68
Cheryl has to invest $1, 727.68
