Answer:
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73
Explanation:
<u>First, we need to calculate the future value of the first part of the investment. We will calculate the future value for the monthly deposit for five years and then the lump sum for another five years.</u>
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
i= 0.04/12= 0.003333
n= 5*12= 60 months
FV= {322*[(1.003333^60) - 1]} / 0.003333
FV= $21,348.05
<u>For the lump sum:</u>
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
n= 12*5= 60
i= 0.05/12= 0.004167
FV= 21,348.05*(1.004167^60)
FV= $27,397.75
<u>Now, the future value of the second part of the investment:</u>
<u></u>
n= 60
i= 0.0041667
A= 440
FV= {440*[(1.004167^60) - 1]} / 0.004167
FV= $29,922.98
Total value of the investment= 27,397.75 + 29,922.98
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73
