Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
One year ago, Deltona Motor Parts deposited $16,500 in an investment account to buy new equipment three years from today. Today, it is adding another $12,000 to this account. The company plans on making a final deposit of $20,000 to the account one year from today.
To calculate the future value of the investment, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
First deposit= 16,500*(1.045^4)= 19,676.56
Second deposit= 12,000*(1.045^3)= 13,694
Third deposit= 20,000*(1.045^2)= 21,840.5
Total= $55,211.06
