Answer 1

We have a deposit of $4000 at the end of each year.

The rate is 5% compounded annually (r = 0.05).

The number of periods is n = 10.

We have to calculate the present value of the annuity.

We will use the formula:

`PV=C\cdot(1-(1+r)^(-n))/(i)`

If we replace with our data, we get:

`\begin{gathered} PV=4000\cdot(1-(1+0.05)^(-10))/(0.05) \\ PV=4000\cdot(1-1.05^(-10))/(0.05) \\ PV=4000\cdot(1-(1)/(1.05^(10)))/(0.05) \\ PV=4000\cdot7.72173492918481251283 \\ PV\approx30887 \end{gathered}`

Now, we have to calculate the interest.
