Answer:

You must deposit $14,824.07

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sister:

Investment= $14,000

Interest rate= 10.5%

Number of years= 9

You:

Investment=?

Interest rate= 9.8%

Number of years= 9

First, we need to calculate the future value of your sister:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 14,000*(1.105^9)= $34,386.55

Now, we can determine your deposit:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 34,386.55/ (1.098^9)= $14,824.07
