Problema Solution

An Investor pays 9%compound semiannually. I want to have $10,000 in the future.How much should I deposit now to have that amount in 5 years?

Round to the nearest cent.

Answer provided by our tutors

A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(nt)

10000 = P(1+(0.09/2))^(2*5)


 


1o000 = P(1.045)^10

10000 = P(1.553)

P = $6439.15
