So Quarterly interest Rate = 8% /4 Quarters = 2% | ||||
Quarters | FVF of $ 1 @ 2% | |||
0 | 1.00000 | |||
1 | 1.02000 | |||
2 | 1.04040 | |||
3 | 1.06121 | |||
4 | 1.08243 | |||
5 | 1.10408 | |||
6 | 1.12616 | |||
7 | 1.14869 | |||
8 | 1.17166 | |||
9 | 1.19509 | |||
10 | 1.21899 | |||
11 | 1.24337 | |||
12 | 1.26824 | |||
Deposite Amount | PVF @ 9% in Eighth Year | Future Value | ||
