Given your projection of your annual income and effective tax rate, you believe that you will be able to invest $3,000, $3,300, $3,800, and $4,000 next four years, respectively, starting a year from today. Your estimated rate of return on this investment is 5%. How much can you withdraw in 4 years

Answer 1

Final value= $15,101.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

You believe that you will be able to invest $3,000, $3,300, $3,800, and $4,000 next four years. The interest rate is 5%.

To calculate the final value of each deposit we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

Year 1= 3,000*1.05^3= $3,472.88

Year 2= 3,300*1.05^2= 3,638.25

Year 3= 3,800*1.05= 3,990

Year 4= 4,000

Total= $15,101.13
