Question

3. Another client, Wynona, decides that she will invest $5,000 per year in a 6% annuity for the first ten years, then $6,000 for the next ten years, and then $4,000 per year for the last ten years, how much will she accumulate? [Hint: Treat each ten-year period as as separate annuity and compute the Future Value. After the ten years, assume that the value will continue to grow at compound interest for the remaining years of the 30 years. Use tables from Unit 6 to compute compound interest.] (5 points)

Answer:

Explanation / Answer

Key point to note: Once you get the future value for the first part, it will become the present value in the next part and so on till you find the final value. We will use the same formula as above: FV for first 10 years = 65,903.97 FV after 20 years = 197,107.01 FV after the 30 years = 405,711.80
