Reiss has invested $5,000 at the end of every year for the past 22 years and earns 8 percent annually. If he continues doing this, how much will his investment account be worth 12 years from now

Respuesta :

Answer:

Total amount will be = $856584.02

Explanation:

Annual invested amount by Reiss = $5000

Interest rate earned on the invested amount = 8 percent annually or 0.08.

Total number of years the amount invested, 22 + 12 = 34 years

Now we have to find the total amount if the total investment years are 34 years. Below is the calculation.

[tex]\text{Total amount} =Annuity [ \frac{(1+r)^{n} - 1}{r}] \\= 5000 [ \frac{(1 + 0.08 )^{34} - 1}{0.08}] \\= 856584.02 \ dollars[/tex]
