What is the future value (FV) after 4 years of the following investments:
Payment $150 per quarter starting quarter 1. Interest Rate is 8 % per year compounded semiannually.
Solution
Here Present Value(PV) is $150 per quarter
Therefore for one year PV will be $150*4=$600
Future Value (FV)=PV (1+r)n?
where r = rate of interest
n = years compounded i.e, annually or semi annually or quarterly etc.
PV=$600 , r = 8/100 = 0.08 , n = 8
So, FV=600(1+0.08)8
= 600(1.08)8
=600(1.851)
FV= $1110.6
can be rounded of and FV = $1111
the future value after 4 years is $1111.00
