How much would you have to deposit today if you wanted to have $60,000 in four years? Annual interest rate is 9%. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) b. Assume that you are saving up for a trip around the world when you graduate in two years. If you can earn 8% on your investments, how much would you have to deposit today to have $15,000 when you graduate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

a. $42,505.51

b. $12,860.08

Explanation:

The computation of the present value is shown below:-

Present value = FV ÷ (1 + r) × n

= $60,000 ÷ (1 + 0.09) × 4

= 60,000 ÷ 1.411582

= $42,505.51

b. The computation of present value is shown below:-

Present value = FV ÷ (1 + r) × n

= 15,000 ÷ (1 + 0.08) × 2

= 15,000 ÷ 1.1664

= $12,860.08

Therefore we have applied the above formula.
