Explanation / Answer

Answer to Question 1:

Amount Invested = $4,000
Interest Rate = 20%
Period = 5 years

Future Value = $4,000 * FV of $1 (20%, 5)
Future Value = $4,000 * 2.488
Future Value = $9,952

Answer to Question 2:

Annual Gift = $11,500
Period = 6 years
Interest Rate = 14%

Present Value of Gift = $11,500 * PV of $1 (14%, 6)
Present Value of Gift = $11,500 * 0.456
Present Value of Gift = $5,244
