\n" ); document.write( "
Amount each year for 4 year-old: \"highlight_green%28%22%24%22443.45%29\" for 14 years 
\n" ); document.write( "Amount each year for 6 year-old: \"highlight_green%28%22%24%22559.02%29\" for 12 years\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This is the formula I used. It's set up in MS Excel. It may seem like 2 different formulae, but they're the same.
\n" ); document.write( "It's just that one is a little simpler, if I may say so.
\n" ); document.write( ", or , where:
\n" ); document.write( "\"PMT\" = ANNUAL deposit
\n" ); document.write( "\"FV%5Boa%5D\" = FUTURE VALUE of an ordinary annuity (end-of-period deposit)
\n" ); document.write( "\"i\" = ANNUAL INTEREST rate
\n" ); document.write( "\"m\" = NUMBER of COMPOUNDING periods, per annum
\n" ); document.write( "\"t\" = TIME (in years) \n" ); document.write( "
