A sinking fund is established to obtain $75,000 in five years. The interest rate is 10% and payments are made quarterly. Find the periodic payments.

Future Value = Periodic payment/i
[75000*i)/[(1+i)^n-1] = pp
pp = 1875/[(1.025)^20-1]
pp = 1875/0.63861644
Periodic Payment = $2936.03
Cheers,
Stan H.
