Suppose the Blue Hand Hospitality Enterprises Co. wishes to set aside an equal, annual, end-of-year amount in an investment account earning 9.50% per year over the next five years. The firm wants to have $5 million in the account when the account matures. How much must be deposited in the account at the end of each year?
Group of answer choices
$827,182.09
$891,410.73
$794,569.44
$844,200.00
- Future Value required in 20 years is \(\$ 5,000,000\)
Calculating the Annual Deposit to be made each year using Fv of ordinary annuity formula:-
FutureValue \(=C * \frac{\left[(1+r)^{n}-1\right]}{r}\)
Where, \(\mathrm{C}=\) Periodic Deposit
\(r=\) Periodic Interest rate \(=9.50 \%\)
\(n=\) no of periods \(=5\)
\(5,000,000=C * \frac{\left[(1+0.095)^{5}-1\right]}{0.095}\)
\(5,000,000=C * \frac{[1.57423874093-1]}{0.095}\)
\(C=\$ 827,182.09\)
So, deposited in the account at the end of each year is \(\$ 827,182.09\)
