Sagot :

Answer: $12,113.14

Explanation:

Find out the future value of each payment 20 years from now then sum up the values.

Year 1:

= 250 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁹

= $3,557.94

Year 2:

= 300 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁸

= $3,712.636

Year 3:

= 450 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁷

= $4,842.5688

Future value of all:

= 3,557.94 + 3,712.636 + 4,842.5688

= $12,113.14
