Answer:

  • $59821.02

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial Investment P = $300
  • Monthly deposit PMP = $300
  • Interest rate r = 5% PA compounded monthly
  • Time t = 12 years
  • Number of compounds n = 12

Future value = Compound interest + Future value of series

Compound interest:

  • P(1+r/n)^(nt) = 300(1 + 0.05/12)^144 = 545.95

Future value of series:

  • PMT × {[(1 + r/n)(nt) - 1] / (r/n)} × (1 + r/n) =
  • 300 {[(1 + 0.05/12)^144 - 1] / (0.05/12)} × (1 + 0.05/12) = 59275.07

Future value:

  • 545.95 + 59275.07 = 59821.02
