Determine the principal P that must be invested at rate r = 8%, compounded monthly, so that $500,000 will be available for retirement in t = 15 years. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
-----
A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(nt)
------
500,000 = P(1+(0.08/12))^(12*15)
-----
500,000 = P(1.0067)^(180)
------
P = 500,000/1.0067^180
P = $150,299.54
--------
