You want to quit your job and return to school for an MBA degree 3 years from now, and you plan to save $5,000 per year, beginning immediately. You will make 3 deposits in an account that pays 5.2% interest. Under these assumptions, how much will you have 3 years from today?

Answer:

$15,793.52

Explanation:

The payments represent annuity payments. Value after three years will be the future value of 5000 per year at 5.2 %

The formula for the future value of annuities is as follows.

FV = P[ (1 +r )n -1/r]

In this case: p =5000: n= 3. r = 5.2% or 0.052

FV = 5000[(1+0.052)3-1/0.052]

=5000[1.16425-1/0.052]

=5000(0.164252/0.052)

=5000 x 3.1587

= $15,793.52
