Explanation / Answer

Please find the detailed answer as follows:

Future Value of 6000 after 18 Years = 6000*FVIF(18,4%) = 6000* 2.02582 = 12154.92

+ Future Value of 1000 Annual Deposit = 1000*FVIFA(18,4%) = 1000*25.64541 = 25645.41

Total Value = 12154.92 + 25645.41 = $37800.33

Answer is $37800.33.
