You plan to retire 10 years from today. Your current utility bills are $3,457 per year. How much will your utility bills be when you retire if utility costs are rising at 4.91% per year?
We use the formula:
A=P(1+r/100)^n
where
A=future value
P=present value
r=rate of interest
n=time period.
A=3,457*(1.0491)^10
=3,457*1.6149864
=$5583.01(Approx)
