Question 1088799
Question:
Find how much money needs to be deposited now into an account to obtain $1,700 (Future Value) in 12 years if the interest rate is 4.5% per year compounded continuously. 
 
Solution:
Future value 1700 is given by
F=Pe^(rt)
where 
P=money deposited to be found
r=annual interest rate=0.045
t=time in years=12

1700=Pe^(.045*12)
P=1700/e^(.045*12)
=1700/1.7160
=990.67
