Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You decided to invest ​$4,500 at the end of each year earning 6 percent compounded annually.

We need to use the following formula to calculate the final value of the investment:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

A) n= 30 years

FV= 4,500*(1+0.06)^30= $25,845.71

B) The investment is made for 20 years.

FV= 4,500*1.06^20= $14,432.11
