4) $920.00
Solution
One thing that is not explicitly stated but that you determine by reviewing the answer choices is that the 8% return is a continuous rate of return. Then, as the note is for 12 years,
Pert = Pe.08(12) = Pe.96 = 12000
P = 12000/e.96 12000/2.61169647342312 4594.71463170134 4594.71
