Answer:

7 years 2 months.

Explanation:

Use the time value of money techniques to find the period, the time in years it will take to reach $31,000.

PV = - $21,000

i = 0.75 %

P/yr = 12

Pmt = - $100

Fv = $31,000

N = ?

Using a Financial Calculator to enter the values as above, N is 86.06 months that is 7 years 2 months.
