Answer #1

We can use Future Value of Annuity (FVA) formula:

|(1 + i) - 1 FVA = A

52,500 = 600 (1 + i)6-12 - 1

87.5 = ! (1 + i)72 - 1

When you solve it you get i = 0.064 or 6.4%

Refer the following table for verification.

note: For one month Interest = (6.4%/12)

Year Month Interest Opening opening * 6.4% contribution Balance 600 1203 3.200 6.417 1810 9.651 2419 3032 3648 4268 4891 600

Year Balance 600 000 au 600 600/ Interest Month Opening Opening 6.4% contribution 15318.73 81.700 16000.43 85.336 16685.77 88
