Answer:

FV= $16,652.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Your coin collection contains 95 1952 silver dollars.

Number of years= 2060 - 1952= 108

They appreciate at an annual rate of 4.9 percent.

To calculate the future value of the coins, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 95*(1.049^108)

FV= $16,652.38
