Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Assume that your parents wanted to have $ 140,000 saved for college by your 18th birthday and they started saving on your first birthday.

Interest= 11.0 % per year.

A) We need to find the annual payment made every birthday:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual payment

n=18

FV= 140,000

i= 0.11

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/[(1+i)^n-1]

A=(140,000*0.11)/[(1.11^18)-1]

A= $2778

B) Now FV= $180,000

A=(180,000*0.11)/[(1.11^18)-1]

A= $3571.72

answer; the correct answer should be (demonstrations); good luck
