NONANNUAL COMPOUNDING

You plan to make five deposits of $1,000 each, one every 6 months, with the first payment being made in 6 months. You will then make no more deposits.

One year from today you must make a payment of $8,000. To prepare for this payment, you plan to make two equal quarterly deposits (at the end of Quarters 1 and 2) in a bank that pays 6% nominal interest compounded quarterly. How large must each of the two payments be? Round your answer to the nearest cent. $
