Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The villa costs $500,000 today, and housing prices in Mexico are expected to increase by 6% per year. Manny and Irene want to make fifteen equal annual payments into an account, starting today, so there will be enough money to purchase the villa in fifteen years.

The account earns 10% per year.

First, we need to calculate the final value of the house with the following formula.

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 500,000*(1.06^15)=$1,198,279.1

Now, we can calculate the annual payments required:

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

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

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

A= (1,198,279.1*0.10)/[(1.10^15)-1]

A= $37,714.37

borrow money from the government then pay the government back 5k
