Answer:
a. 4 years
b. 19 years
c. 19 years
d. 25 years
Explanation:
The number of years, n is calculated for each future value as follows :
a. $1,360
Pv = - $1,000
Pmt = $ 0
P/y = 1
r = 8 %
Fv = $1,360
n = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the number of years, n is 3.9953 or 4 years
b. $2,720
Pv = - $1,000
Pmt = $ 0
P/y = 1
r = 8 %
Fv = $2,720
n = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the number of years, n is 13.00 or 13 years
c. $4,316
Pv = - $1,000
Pmt = $ 0
P/y = 1
r = 8 %
Fv = $4,316
n = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the number of years, n is 19.00 or 19 years
d. $6,848
Pv = - $1,000
Pmt = $ 0
P/y = 1
r = 8 %
Fv = $6,848
n = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the number of years, n is 24.9991 or 25 years
