Tina would like to withdraw an annual salary of $35,756 from an account paying 2.2% compounded annually for 35 years once she retires. Given this information, determine the amount needed in her account in order for her to reach her goal. Round to the nearest cent. 

The answer was B i guessed

Respuesta :

To solve the question we use the compound formula given by:
A=P(1+r/100)^n
where:
A=future amount
P=principle
r=rate
n=time
From the question:
A=$35756, r=2.2%,t=35 years Thus plugging the values in the formula and solving for P we shall have:
35756=P(1+2.2/100)^35
35756=P(1.022)^35
thus
P=35756/(1.022)^35
P=$16,694.2755~$16,694.3
Therefore she needs $16, 694.3 in her account
