QUESTION 2

(This is a challenging question. Please allocate time wisely.) Cipro Milda is planning a college fund for her child. When the child joins college in 15 years, the tuition payment for the first semester is expected to be $21,000. Thereafter, tuition payments will be due every six months for the following semester. These payments are expected to increase at an annual inflation rate of 6 percent. The child will graduate in eight semesters, so she will have to make a total of eight tuition payments. If she can earn 8 percent annual rate compounded monthly, how much will she have to deposit monthly in the college fund so that the balance in the fund is zero when the last tuition payment is made? She plans to continue making these deposits until the last tuition bill is paid.
