Assuming you have investing your money in an account is provides 10% return and the interest is compounded daily (365 days). What is $X? (Show using a financial calculator, step by step)

Explanation / Answer

Annual Interest Rate ( compounded Daily) = 10%

Annual Interest Rate (Compounded Annually) =(1+10%/365)^365 -1 = 10.515578%

Quaterly Interest Rate =(1+10%/365)^(365/4) -1 = 2.531161%

Amount available in Texas Tomorrow Fund on your Child 17th Birthday = fv(rate,nper,pmt,pv)

rate (quarterly) = 2.531161%

nper (no of quarter) = (17-1)*4 = 64

pmt (quartrely Payment) = 500

PV = 0

Amount available in Texas Tomorrow Fund on your Child 17th Birthday = fv(2.531161%,64,500,0)

Amount available in Texas Tomorrow Fund on your Child 17th Birthday = $ 78065.90

Annual Withdrawl ( X) = pmt(rate,nper,pv,fv)

rate ( Compounded annually) =  10.515578%

nper ( no of year) = 4

pv ( Amount on 17 th birthday) = 78065.90

fv = 0

Annual Withdrawl ( X) = pmt(10.515578%,4,-78065.90,0)

Annual Withdrawl ( X) = $ 24,902.925

Answer

X = $ 24,902.925
