1. Assume that you have $1,000 to invest, so insert 1000 as your Present Value in the following table. Assume that you want to invest your money for 5 years (insert 5 for Number of Periods). Assume an annual interest rate of 3.00% (insert 3 for Interest Rate per Period). The table will determine the Future Value of your investment. If you input the numbers correctly, your Future Value is computed to be $1.159, which is what your investment will be worth in 5 years. Now revise the input to reflect your actual savings and the prevailing interest rate so that you can see how your savings will grow in 5 years. Even if you have no savings now, you can at least see how the interest rate affects the future value of savings by revising your input in the Interest Rate per Period, and then observing the change in the Future Value.
