Kara George received a $19,000 gift for graduation from her uncle. If she deposits this in an account paying 3 percent, what will be the value of this gift in 12 years? Use Exhibit 1-A. (Round FV factor to 3 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
Future Value:
Future Value is Value of current asset at future date grown at given int rate or growth rate.
FV = PV (1+r)^n
Where r is Int rate per period
n - No. of periods
Particulars |
Amount |
Present Value |
$ 19,000.00 |
Int Rate |
3.0000% |
Periods |
12 |
Future Value = Present Value * ( 1 + r )^n
= $ 19000 ( 1 + 0.03) ^ 12
= $ 19000 ( 1.03 ^ 12)
= $ 19000 * 1.4258
= $ 27089.46
