  1. How much money must be put into a bank account yielding 5.25% (compounded monthly) in order to have $6,800 at the end of 11 years? Round to two decimal places.

Amount deposited = 6,800/(1 + 0.0525/12)

Amount deposited = $3,821.65

  1. (i) Develop the timeline (linear representation of the timing of cash flows)

  2. (ii) Identify the time value of money variable (PV, FV, PMT, N or Rate) which needs to

  3. (iii) Identify the values of the remaining four variables (PV, FV, PMT, N or Rate) from

    the question. Be sure to input positive or negative signs.
