1.) To buy a car in about 5 years, Peter saves 100 per month. How much will he have
accumulated at the end of 5 years if he manages to earn a rate of 5.5% compounded monthly
on his savings?
Given:
R = 100
t = 5yrs
m = 12
j = 5.5% = 0.055
n = mt = (5) (12) = 60
Solution:

S = R[ ]
(1 + m
) −1

2.) At age 21, an employer begins putting away 10,000 per year. How much money will be in
the account at the end of 10, 20, 30 and 40 years? Assume i = 7%.
Given:
R = 10000
