Q:
Yumi's grandparents presented her with a gift of $14,000 when she was 11 yr old to be used for her college education. Over the next 6 yr, until she turned 17, Yumi's parents had invested her money in a tax-free account that had yielded interest at the rate of 4.5%/year compounded monthly. Upon turning 17, Yumi now plans to withdraw her funds in equal annual installments over the next 4 yr, starting at age 18. If the college fund is expected to earn interest at the rate of 8%/year, compounded annually, what will be the size of each installment? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

A:
size of each installment = 14000%2A%281+%2B+0.045%2F12%29%5E%2812%2A6%29%2F%28%281+-+1%2F1.08%5E4%29%2F0.08%29 = $highlight%285534.28%29
