Answer:

PV= $74,999.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Interest rate= 0.036/4= 0.009

Number of quarters= 5*4= 20

Future value= $89,719

We need to determine the initial inventment. We will use the following formula:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 89,719/ (1.009^20)

PV= $74,999.97
