Question 1113171
She calculated she will need $19,000 to cover her expenses. Lorna’s bank offers 8% interest compounded annually. What should Lorna invest now to have the needed funds?
-----------------
FV = PV*(1 + r)^t  r = interest rate, t = periods
19000 = PV*(1 + 0.08)^5
PV = 19000/(1.08^5)
Just calculator work now.
