Dear tutor,I have solved one question(I have mentioned the solution of that question too because the question which I have is subsequent to it.Kindly,help me in solving the subsequent question.

The question I resolved is:

Q.If she chooses option 1, she believes she can invest 100,000 today and in addition, 600 each month in a financial product that offers 6% return. Assuming she plans to retire in 30 years, how much will she have saved up?

Solution:

Initial Investment PV = 100,000 Monthly investment P = 600 Monthly rate - 6 / 12 = 0.5% Number of months = 30 x 12 = 360

Future value of the investements = FV of the Monthly investmetns + FV of the Intial investment FV = P x [(1 + r)n - 1] / r + FV x (1 + r)n = 600 x [(1 + 0.005)360 - 1] / 0.005 + 100,000 x (1 + 0.005)360 = 602,709 + 602,258 = 1,204,967

In subsequent to this question,there is a question in which I have confusion.Kindly help me in solving this question.Would be glad.The question is:
