(Related to Checkpoint 5.5) (Solving for n) Jack asked Jill to marry him, and she has accepted under one condition: Jack must buy her a new $330,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom. Jack currently has $59,680 that he may invest. He has found a mutual fund with an expected annual return of 4 percent in which he will place the money.

(Round to one decimal place.)Explanation / Answer
$330,000 = Future Value (FV)
$50,680 = Present Value (PV)
4% = Interest Rate (r)
0 = PMT
