Explanation:

Full question "Three years? ago, you invested in the Future Investco Mutual Fund by purchasing 1,000 shares of the fund at the price of $ 19.51 per share. Because you did not need the? income, you elected to reinvest all dividends and capital gains distributions. ? Today, you sell your 1,100 shares in this fund for ?$22.02 per share. If there were a 1?% load on this? fund, what would your rate of return? be? The compounded rate of return on this investment over the? three-year period is?"

Value of investment three year ago = 1,000 * $19.51 = $19,510

Value of investment today = 1,100 * $22.02 = $24,222

Load = 1%. Net Proceed from sale of investment = $24,222 * (1 - 1%) = $23,979.78

Rate of return in three year = ($23,979.78 - $19,510) / $19,510

Rate of return in three year = $4,469.79 / $19,510

Rate of return in three year = 0.229103

Rate of return in three year = 22.91%

Annual Return = [(1 + 22.91%)^(1 / 3)] - 1

Annual Return = 1.0712 - 1

Annual Return = 0.712 - 1

Annual Return = 7.12%

you will have $2593.74 in 10 years if you set aside $1,000 at 10%

you will have $9321.91 in 20 years if you set aside $2000 at 8%

you will have $1469.32 in 5 years if you set aside $1000 at 8%

you will have $1296.87 in 10 years if you set aside $500 at 10%

you will have $239.66 in 15 years if you set aside $100 at 6%

you will have $4660.96 in 20 years if you set aside $1000 at 8%
