If you want $1,000 three years from now and you earn 4 percent on your savings, how much do you need to deposit?

a. $1,000
b. $1,040
c. $1,030
d. $889
e. $885

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. $889

Explanation:

The computation of the deposit amount is shown below:

Principal = Amount ÷ (1 + interest rate)^number of years

              = $1,000 ÷ (1 + 4%)^3 years

              = $1,000 ÷ 1.124864

              = $889

Simply we divide the amount by the interest rate and the number of years so that the exact value can arrive
