I have $62,000 in my investment account. I want to add $2,000 each month into this account starting today. I am expecting to earn 1%/month. How much will I have in this account in 2 years?
*Please post formulas or calculations done by calculator*
At today we have $64,000(62,000+2000of first deposit ) in account and we deposing $2000 at each month . here we need to calculate the future value of all these amount by compounding at the rate of 1%.
future value of cash flows are :
future value of todays 64,000 =64,000*(1.01)^20=64,000*1.220=78,000
future value of deposit at begning of:
second month =2000*(1.01)^19=2416
third month=2000*(1.01)^18=2392
fourth month=2000*(1.01)^17=2368
fifth month=2000(1.01)^16=2345
sixth month=2000(1.01)^15=2321
seventh month=2000(1.01)^14=2298
eigth month=2000(1.01)^13=2276
ninth month=2000(1.01)^12=2253
tenth month=2000(1.01)^11=2231
eleventh month=2000(1.01)^10=2209
tewelth month=2000(1.01)^9=2187
thirteenth month=2000(1.01)^8=2165
fourteenth month=2000(1.01)^7=2144
fifteenth month=2000(1.01)^6=2123
sixteenth=2000(1.01)^5=2102
seventeenth=2000(1.01)^4=2081
eighteenth=2000(1.01)^3=2060
ninteenth=2000(1.01)^2=2040
twenteenth=2000*1.01=2020
total future value $=120031
