    Mr. Franklin wants to save $38,000 for a sports car in 4.5 years. To calculate how much he needs to save each year with a 6% interest rate: 1) Calculate the present value of $38,000 in 4.5 years at 6%, which is $29,235.28. 2) With deposits at the end of each year, Mr. Franklin needs to save $29,235.28/4.5 years = $6,495 each year. 3) With deposits at the beginning of each year, the amount needed each year is still $6,495.

    Step 1

    Given:

    Future value = $38,000

    Periods = 4.5 years

    Interest rate = 6%

    Step 2

    Calculate the present value as follows:

    Present value = Future   value


    (1+Rate)Years
    Present value = (1+6%)4.5
    $38,000
    Present value = $38,000 × 0.76934938
    Present value  = $29,235.28
    Therefore, the present value is $29,235.28

    ---------------------------------------------------

    B.

    If amount is deposited at the beginning of the year. Present value will be equal to $29,235.28
