a. 4169
b. 4435
c. 4300
d. 5296

The correct answer is C: $4300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

They will invest an equal amount each month for 5 years.

This account will earn 6% per year(0.5% per month)and will have $300,000 at the end of the 5-year term

We need to use the following formula:

final value= {A[(1+i)^n-1]}/r

A= cuota

i= monthly interest

n= 60 months

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/[(1+i)^n-1]

A= (300000*0.005)/[(1.005^60)-1]

A= 1500/0.34885= 4300

answer; /// i do believe the correct answer is (30,000);

correct, but each time you dont pay the price of the penalty can increase.
