Donald

Future value of annuity = P * [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r,

where P = periodic payment. This is $1,000

r = periodic rate of interest. This is (12%/12) = 1%, or 0.01. We divide by 12 since we need to convert the annual rate into monthly rate)

n = number of periods. This is 37 * 12 = 444 (there are 37 years, or 444 months in the investment period)

Future value of annuity = $1,000 * [(1 + 0.01)⁴⁴⁴ - 1] / 0.01

Future value of annuity = $8,192,585.53

Donald will have $8,192,585.53 at retirement

Joe

Future value of annuity = P * [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r,

where P = periodic payment. This is $2,000

r = periodic rate of interest. This is (12%/12) = 1%, or 0.01. We divide by 12 since we need to convert the annual rate into monthly rate)

n = number of periods. This is 27 * 12 = 324 (there are 27 years, or 324 months in the investment period)

Future value of annuity = $2,000 * [(1 + 0.01)³²⁴ - 1] / 0.01

Future value of annuity = $4,825,220.25

Joe will have $4,825,220.25 at retirement
