Answer:

$59,129.00

Explanation:

The formula for the future value is P(1+i)^n

P= 3000, 5000, 6000

i= 15%

n= 2,3,6,9,10

FV= 3000 x 1.15^10 + 5000 x 1.15^8 + 5000 x 1.15^5 + 5000 x 1.15^4 + 6000 x 1.15^ 1 + 6000 x 1.15^0

FV= 3000 X 4.045 + 5000 X 3.059 + 5000 X 2.011 + 5000 x 1.749 + 6000 x 1.15 + 6000 X 0

Fv= 12135 + 15294 + 10055 + 8745 + 6900 + 6000

FV = $59,129.00
