Answer:
A. Periodic deposit:
The goal is to make $130,000 by depositing a set amount every year.
This set amount is an annuity. The $130,000 is therefore the future value of the annuity after 18 years.
Future value of annuity = Annuity * Future value of annuity factor, 7%, 18 years
130,000 = Annuity * 33.9990
Annuity = 130,000 / 33.9990
= $3,823.64
B. Sources of the financial goal.
Money from deposits = Periodic deposit * no. of years
= 3,823.64 * 18
= $68,825.52
Money from interest:
= Financial goal - Money from deposits
= 130,000 - 68,825.52
= $61,174.48
