Solution
The formula for calculating the future value of an annuity due, where a series of equal payments are made at the beginning of each of multiple consecutive periods, is F = P (1 + r)[{(1 + r)n – 1} / r]. Here, P is the periodic payment, r is the rate of interest in decimals, and n is the number of periods. In this case, P = $ 5000, n = 10 and r = 0.04. Then F = 5000(1+0.04)[ {(1+0.04)10 -1}/0.04] = 5000(1.04)[(1.04)10 -1]/0.04 = (5200/0.04)* (1.480244285 -1) = 130000*0. 480244285 = $ 62717.57 (on rounding off to the nearest cent)
