For this we assume that the annual deposits are equal and denoted by A.
To solve this we jusr equate the present value of all withdrawals with the present value of all deposits. (Let the present day be the fourth birthday of the child)
The present value of withdrawals = PVW
PVW = 4000/(1.25)14 + 4000(1.11)/(1.25)15 + 4000(1.11)2/(1.25)16 + 4000(1.11)3/(1.25)17
PVW = (4000/(1.25)14) [ 1 + (1.11/1.25) + (1.11/1.25)2 + (1.11/1.25)3]
PVW = 594.04785
The present value of the deposits = PVD
PVD = A + A/1.25 + A/1.252 + ... A/1.2511
PVD = A * [1 - (1/1.25)12] / [1 - (1/1.25)]
PVD = A *([1.2512 - 1] / 1.2512 ) / [0.25/1.25]
PVD = 5A * [1.2512 - 1] / 1.2512
PVD = 19.65640A
PVD = PVW
19.65640 A = 594.04785
A = 594.04785 / 19.65640 = 30.22156
A = $30.22156 = Annual deposits to be made everly year from 4th birthday to the 15th birthday
