You want to be able to withdraw $800 from a savings account at the end of year 1, $900 at the end of year 2, $1,000 at the end of year 3, and so on over a total of 5 years. How much money must be on deposit right now, at the end of year 0, to just deplete the account after the 5 withdrawals if interest is 5% compounded annually
