Your goal is to have $10,000 in your bank account by the end of twelve years. If the interest rate remains constant at 9% and you want to make annual identical deposits, what amount will you have to deposit into your account at the end of each year to reach your goal

Respuesta :

Answer:

Annual deposit= $496.51

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value (FV)= $10,000

Interest rate (i)= 9%

Number of periods (n)= 12 years

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (10,000*0.09) / [(1.09^12) - 1]

A= $496.51
