document.write( "It is a classic Ordinary Annuity saving plan. The general formula is \r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    FV = \"P%2A%28%28%281%2Br%29%5En-1%29%2Fr%29\",   \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "where  FV is the future value of the account;  P is annual payment (deposit); r is the annual percentage yield presented as a decimal; \r\n" );
document.write( "n is the number of deposits (= the number of years, in this case).\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Under the given conditions, FV = $6,000;  r = 0.04;  n = 7.  So, according to the formula (1), you get for the annual payment \r\n" );
