If you wish to accumulate $140,000 in 6 years, how much must you deposit today in an account that pays a quoted annual interest rate of 11% with monthly compounding of interest?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$72,405

Explanation:

PV: Present value (The amount of deposit today)

FV: Future Value

i/r: Interest rate

PMT: The amount of money you have to deposit monthly. In this question, this amount is 0.

FV = $140,000

n = 6 years = 6x12 = 72 months
