You can put this solution on YOUR website!
FV=4900(1.11)^8
FV=4900(2.3)
FV=$11270.00

You were almost close to the right answer but you should found the amount of $1 at 11% for 8yrs nd then multiply by $4,900
Solution
Using A=(1+interest)^n
Amount of $1 =(1+0.11)^8yrs
A=2.30453777
Therefore..2.30453777*4,900
Amount of investment will be 11,292
= $112.9
