If payments are made at the end of each period, how much money will be in the account in 3 years? Type the amount in the account $ (Round to the nearest dollar.) Enter your answer in the answer box.

Explanation / Answer

Monthly deposits: $658 at the end of each month
Interest earned: 6% compounded 12 times per year
find balance after 3 years
If I got that right, then:
658{[(1+(0.06/12)]^(12*3)-1}/(0.06/12)
= 658(1.197-1)/0.005

= 658(39.4) = $25925.2
